My brakes are really starting to get on my nerves. When I press the pedal it goes about halfway down before you get any decent force and the ABS seems to cut in way too early. (the tyres are fairly new eagle F1's)

I have changed the master cylinder, brake fluid and bled the brakes through correctly 3 times.

When the engine is off the brake pedal goes rock solid but there is a bit of hissing coming from the pedal. Is this normal or could it be a servo issue?

EDIT* The discs and pads are fairly new.

I have exactly the same prob. New discs and pads. I have changed my master cylinder, vacuum pump and tried another abs pump. I'm mega confused with this one. Did you get yours sorted,also does your pedal slowly sink really low if pressure is kept on, if so please share your findings?

This sounded like a servo issue. Maybe a split in the seal? Best off PM'ing Scrompy.
