The easiest way I have ever done it is with a power bleeder, which is a pressurizing device that you screw onto the fluid reservoir. Once attached you pump up to manufacturer spec pressure then open the bleeder screws on the caliper one at a time and run the fluid out till you see no air bubbles. (should only be a very short period of time). Then repeat the same with all four calipers and for good measure with the clutch bleeder under the car on the drivers side, see bentley for a good pic.


PS If you don't have a power bleeder have an assistant pump up the brakes and maintain pressure on the pedal when you open the bleed screws. Do each wheel, two bleeders per wheel one at a time, if that doesn't fix it then I'm with lil B prolly a master cylinder.
