Hi all,

Got calibra brake discs and calipers on my corsa.

Realised recently that with the brake pedal, i can lightly touch the pedal and nothing much happens until i put it down abit more??

Just wondering if this is right as they don't feel as much of an effect as on my dad's corsa?!

Cheers for any advice

His is a 1.4 8V and mines a 16V

Though i suppose his is an automatic.

Just his feels more alert than mine but if sounds normal then al is well!

Maybe give it a bleed with fresh fluid front and rear.

Get the rears adjusted too. This can make the brakes go a bit slack.
