Question about Brakes and master cylinder

Morning,


A few weeks ago I swapped pads and bleed the brakes as I accidentally allowed air in. I ended up bleeding it twice because it seemed spongy but noticed not much fluid was coming out when my girl was pressing the pedal down.

The pedal feel was fine for about a month and feels good at first, but now when at a stop the pedal sinks slightly. Could this be air? a dying master cylinder?

couple of notes:

- I havent had ABS in over 2 years. My wheel sensor broke when bearings were replaced. replaced the sensors but still the light. Didnt go to Honda for fear of them making this a huge job.

-went backto DOT 3 from 4. Not sure if this afffects anything...



Need advice because this is freaking me out!

Following brake pedal is normally air in the system. Bleed them again correctly. Sounds like your helper let the pedal back up while the bleeder was still open.
