Are you getting fluid from all three bleed screws on both calipers? Just want to verify you haven't got a mismatched half in their somewhere. What are you using to bleed the brakes?

I find it's useful to use a different coloured brake fluid to whatever I used last time, that way I can make sure I flush out all the old fluid. When the fluid coming out the tubes is an identical colour to the stuff in the glass jar, I know I've forced a nice lot of fluid through. Repeat another five times lol.
