Brake problem
#1
My brake pedal never seems to be firm enough. It sometimes gets better right after I bleed it but it gets softer again later. Usually I see very little to no air come out of the front calipers. The rears however I get what seems like an unending supply of air. The fluid that comes out also appears to have some rust or rust like particles floating around in it. One theory is maybe the piston bores are rusted out, and this is causing both the air issue and the rusty brake fluid issue.

Another thing that I've noticed is that I can bottom out the brake pedal with enough force (I don't have to stand on it, but its not a little bit of force either). I'm not sure if that should happen. This leads me to believe that I could have some sort of MC problem.

So, what do you guys think? Replace the rear calipers and MC?
