[QUOTE="Dr Fildo, post: 590663, member: 10737"] So I have recently replaced all 4 rotors, new pads all around, and bled all 4 calipers. My brake pedal is soft, and I failed NJ state inspection for rear brakes after all this work. I know the rear brakes are working, b/c the rotors are shiny where the pads are doing their job. Why is the pedal so soft, and what gives with the rear brakes? Oh, I also put in a new master cylinder last summer b/c the pedal felt soft, but it didn't change anything. Are the rear calipers bad? Do I need a new vacuum booster? I do not have testing equipment for that, and do not want to throw a lot of cash at this problem if I can help it. No codes with computer test. HELP!!! [/QUOTE]
