With the size of the calipers on my car I feel it should really be stopping it by no more than 1/2 pedal travel. if that.
i replaced the MC on my 108 due to the sinking pedal ,turned out one of the front pipes was swelling up under pressure and causing the sinkage.firm pedal now
On 126 replacing the MC has not done the trick as has pressure bleeding the system.it is indeed soft in the first half .braking works well .
