From you description:
You may possibly have the second problem. |
I had this issue before with the rear brakes on the Alfa transaxle, they were 'balloning' (blistering..?) under pressure, but otherwise look normal without pressure.
How old are your rubber brake hoses? You may want to replace them, as they do age and are not too expensive..
PS: just remember that I also had the same failure but with an old slave cylinder rubber hose (also on the Alfa..)
