Brake Pedal Softness/Responsiveness
Hey everyone,
First off: 1993 190E 3.0 Front: 94 E420 Rear : 96 SL600 500E Master SS Lines / ATE SuperBlue... Now: My situation is: the brake pedal feels softer than I remember it being when I first bought the car...The brakes dont seem to engage very high in the pedal stroke...they seem to engage about somewhere after 1/4 pedal or half pedal. In situations where I need to stop I usually go down to 3/4 pedal and ease up to half pedal. When I first bought the car it had the stock 190E 2.6 master on it, it died about a year later so I opted to put the 500E master on as it was actually cheaper than the 190E one... Now, my 300SD's--which has a new master and new front calipers--pedal feels MUCH more firm (allbeit less powerful) than my 190's... I'm not really sure if I'm describing the whole thing as accurately as I can.. I've bled all 4 corners via the 2 man method. I even bought a power bleeder and used nearly three quarts on a full bleed of the system... I put on new rotors this past spring, PBR rotors to be exact. If anyone can help me out I'd appreciate it. I'm not really sure what the problem could be...
