Default Spongy brake pedal

Need some help on brake work for my 2004 Disc 2.....seem to have a very spongy brake pedal.

I replaced, the master cylinder, pads, rotors, calipers and hoses. I manually bleed the brakes and commanded the abs bleed process with all new brake fluid. I still have a spongy feel and will not make a quick stop. I feel this is a safety issue, worst of all my wife drives the disc 2.

I will add I have not changed the brake booster, only because I can't find a new one anywhere.

What am I missing?

I am having the same issue with my 04 D2, and am told it is the brake booster. sourcing the part seems to be difficult, did you figure out if that was the problem with yours?

You will get more “views” in the Discovery 2 forum - should post this there.
