My brakes have good stopping power but there isn't much bite until about the pedal is depressed about 2". I have 300mm fronts with Hart drilled/slotted rotors and ceramic pads. I bled the brakes a few weeks ago and replaced with genuine Volvo fluid, and while there was an improvement, it was not significant.
Should the brake pedal be immediately firm, or is my car normal with a bit of travel required for a solid bite? I'm wondering if I maybe messed up the bleed process (and left some air in there) or if air is in trapped in the master cylinder and wasn't forced out during the bleed.
If the pedal is normally a bit a soft at first, what are the options to firm it up and increase the immediacy of the bite? I feel that would increase brake control quite a bit, especially on spirited drives.
