Could be that one or more of your caliper pistons are retracting more than
normal. Is one of your brake rotors excessively warped pushing the piston
back in the cylinder?

Subject: [F500] Pumping the Brakes
So my understanding is that if you need to pump the brakes to get good
stopping power, the first thing to check is bleeding the system. If
that doesn't help, is there anything else I should be looking into, or
just keep trying to perfect my bleeding technique?
The sypmtoms are that on the first pump, you slow down a little, but
not a whole lot, but on the second pump, you stop like nobody's
business (at least compared to a street car).
I've tried bleeding twice now, but no change...
Thanks for any tips!
