I had my brakes services a little while ago. One of the charges was for bleeding the system. I thought that I had been feeling some mushy brake pedal feeling when initially starting the vanagon. I dismissed it as getting used to the new brakes/pedal/bleeding feel. The last few days i have noticed this pedal feel to be worse. Like maybe the system was not bleed appropriately. The feeling goes away after a while of driving. I want to make sure that this is not a booster type thing going on it was not happening before the service. My hunch is air in the lines that gets compressed as I used the brakes more and more, but that fade/mushy feeling gets worst on initial operation because of the previous compression of gas and liquid. Please, could the collective advise?
