bump - i also did this job and am experiencing soft pedal/different engagement after changing pads only. The oem pads used to engage right near the top with a firm pedal - the new pads (ferodo ds2500s) engage much lower, maybe a third of the way down. I cracked open the reservoir and bastered out some fluid during this job to accommodate for pushing the pistons back - i don't think i removed that much, but did I somehow introduce air into the system? anything else it could be? also, what level are you supposed to keep the brake fluid at? it's difficult to tell with the reservoir covered by tupperware. where is the indicator?
