W126 brakes

Ive been driving around the SD a little more often as i got the old tug boat running better again. Ive noticed that my brakes are very loose or marshmellowy. I have to stomp down on the brakes for it to brake propely. My guess is the caliper's need replacing but the brake fluid looks kinda brown. Last i remember i didnt change the brake pad sensor's so that could be a possibility as well.

Checked the pads and they still look new, no squeals. The rotor is new as well.

Tell me what you experts think.
