Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
Re: Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
Try bleeding them once or twice in the order I posted. Trust me. I had to bleed multiple times to get the firmness close to stock.

Re: Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
Thanks I only did the front. These Brembos only have 1 bleed screw on the outside of the caliper these are massive as they have to stop a 700HP Camaro they came off maybe there is an air bubble on the inter section of the caliper

One bleed screw? Interesting..

Re: Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
The Regular SS calipers have 2 and a crossover pipe this set has no pipe and 1 bleed screw I think even the pads look different ?
Re: Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
I would definitely try back to front starting with right rear, left, front right and front left.
It's most likely a bleed issue.

Re: Spongy Pedal after Brembo update
Take another look.....these are the Gen6 Camaro (Alpha) calipers running on the PPV 345mm rotors. There is no external fluid transfer pipe, true, but there are definitely 2 bleeders on each caliper.johnpz2721 wrote: ↑Tue Oct 29, 2019 8:29 pm Thanks I only did the front.

Pads are the same spec as on SS sedan (with earlier caliper configuration) - D1474A, with the small pad dampers, which may not clear OE 18" steel wheels.
