I'd seen this one when I was having a spongy-pedal problem. The point above is that you can bleed in the traditional ways all you want but you can't get ALL the air out unless you force fluid through.

I don't remember what I did. Maybe just vacuum draw.

Now, if you had a bad internal MC leak I'd think you wouldn't see the caliper pistons move but I've never had a MC leak like that.

Does the fluid in the reservoir go down when you pump the pedal? And then slowly back up? Or does it not move at all?
