I might be a pessemist but this sounds like bull to me. I know on track when I've ended up with a spongy pedal it's taken quite a while for the pedal to return to normal again.
Thoughts and opinions please?
Certainly bullshit about his thought process of fluid overheating..
But a warped disc, worn wheel bearing, etc etc, anything that can cause the disc to be untrue and this will push the pads back whilst driving. So first time you hit the pedal, you're just making up that distance. Second or third application will see the pads at the disc and back to normal
