Brakes - Crap and spongey as f*ck

VW did it last time, they were still all spongey.

not saying it the fault but my missus car brakes were really rubbish. so i bled them up but there were still no better. i found that it needed new washer in between the caliper and the flexi pipe on the rear calipers as the old washers has correded away and would say it was dragging air in

I didn't know any different.  I only got the fluid changed because they rung and asked when doing the air con, said they'd do it all in for £100 so I thought sod it, probably needs doing.

Sounds like it wasnt done correctly first time around then, as said they can be a pain to bleed.
