Help Please! Brake Balance favouring the rear and lots of brake dust on rear alloys!

I recently changed the brakes all round, both pads and rotors. Now it has greenstuff pads and EBC Blackdash rotors.

I have followed the break-in procedure, and have been driving carefully on them without excessive braking, until all the black coating had worn off. This took a lot longer on the front than the back. Now that they are finally worn in (not fully, but better and all coating has gone) I did the recommended hard breaking with cool down period, which seemed to help a little, but the brakes still aren't right.

The old pads were completely shot front and back, with the rears having a 1 cm wide rust/dust ring and the front had tramlined on the inside. The brakes are now better, but not what they should be.

I found that there was much more dust on the rear wheels than the front, and confirmed that the balance was favouring the rear when driving on a loose surface at the weekend.

I also have had the rear suspension changed 3 months ago, with parts from Audi, but the back is maybe a little lower than before. The car is S-line sports package (seats, suspension, steering wheel etc, but not external bodykit). Are there different levels of lowering with the S-line suspension? Could this be throwing off the tilt-sensor enough to prematurely lock up the back wheels, or could this be the result of air in the front brakes?

I had to bleed the rear brakes to screw-in the piston, but the fronts screwed-in easily with the reservoir closed and the bleed nipple closed also.

Before I take it to a garage to check the balance, is there anything I can do first to check myself? and hopefully correct myself.

Any help would be much appreciated.

By the way, is it correct that there are brake warning cables on one of the front pads, but none on the rear?

Anyone have any ideas or tricks before I take it to the garage?

The rear suspension shouldn't be any lower than it was before, as long as the garage put the correct replacement shocks on.

I guess it's going into the garage, as it is braking much heavier on the backs than the fronts. There is no intitial bite when you press the pedal and the and the brake pedal has too much play in it.

Hope its an easy fix.

EBD meaning the electronic brake force distribution?

If so, haven't noticed the ABS kicking in early on the back, the brakes just don't feel as powerful as they should and fell like the back is doing all the work. It feels like it almost struggles to stop the car sometimes, definately not what it should feel like after a so-called upgrade.

The car will still nose-dive a bit if I really plant the brakes, and I still get a "bite" if I quickly tap the pedal instead of slowly depressing it, but if I progressively brake I have to push the pedal down quite a distance. I just have very little confidence in the brakes at the moment.

I had a leon TDI before and have driven golf tdi's and they all have a pretty instant "bite" when you press the pedal a small distance, this seems to need more convincing before it will stop the car.

Maybe it is air in the front two lines. Ill try bleeding this weekend and see if it has any effect.

Thanks, Still haven't got around to bleeding yet, but I think now that this must be it. The level in the master cylinder is full, but if I put my foot down, it will stop, then slowly continue until its gets to the floor. Not good!
