must still have air in them mate ...make sure your servo isant leaking....when you next bleed them check the colour of the brake fluid ..if its black its the piston seals as it happen on my old nova gte...hope that helps

I know it sounds stupid but make sure the calipers are on the right way!!
Seen it done in the past.
Make sure the nipples are at the top of the calipers and not facing downwards.
Mate of mine did it afew years back and tried for afew weeks to get them bled up.He almost scrapped the car as he`d tried everything with no luck.Took me 10mins once id realised what he`d done.

Did your fluid drain down? If so are you bleeding the back aswell?
