Ok everybody

Thanks for all your advice and tips

I FINALLY solved it. Not sure if i really want to admit and share it but will to save anyone else the time i've spent (wasted) on getting this sorted

I have S callipers on the front - they have 2 bleed valves - one on the outside and one on the inside of the disc / rotor.

I had forgotten this (haven't needed to touch my brakes for 3 years) and it isn't that easy to see ......The minute i saw it i knew that was the issue .......dohhhhh

Anyway, power bled the whole system, best pedal ever !!!

The bonus is i now own a power bleeder

Thanks again everyone for your ideas
