If they are still on a diagonal system have you checked the opposite n/s rear caliper is working ?

you may have an air lock in the valve block, easy to do, difficult to get rid of in some cases

rebleed the system at the front but if you still have the issue and it's all pointing to a sticky valve block, i'm not sure where you would go to get it unstuck unless you find one from a working car
