Ok i got a 95 accord lx. The brake pads are NOT worn down to where they must be replaced. Now in the winter mornings when i would first start driving my car, it would take very little pressure on the brakes for the vechile to stop. If my brakes always worked like that i'd be happy. But after a while of driving around it would start to require a little more effort.

What i was thinking is maybe there is Air in the lines, and since the brakes worked really good on cold mornings, maybe the air was contracting?

So before i start to try and do anything i wanna see if maybe thats just the problem, that i have to bleed them.

I was going to replace the pads itself, bought new ones and all but i cant get the f'n caliper bolt off. Either way i dont think thats the problem.

 

it actually sounds like it MAY be water in the lines. Old fluid can brake down and as it heats up from excessive braking can get spongy. I'm not promising anything but flush some fluid through the lines and see what it does.

 

I acutally have this same problem on my 97 ex coupe, can you give more information on flushing the lines please. Thank you

 

i was thinking the same as schmitey... probably water in the lines

 

If you do it right you don't even have to bleed them. Fill up your reservoir, and make sure it stays full, and open one bleeder at a time. You shouldn't have to even pump the brakes, most vehicles will flow simply because its downhill. Just make sure the reservoir doesn't run dry.

Another question is does the ABS still work, because it may have water in it as well.
