Surely the pedal would creep with the engine off if there was still in the system though?

I have 283s on the estate. They wont fit on the 1.8 though unfortunately :/

Ah yeah, I remember now!

Pedal is fine and not really any different to the other HDi that's totally standard brake wise - a smidgen more travel thanks to the larger piston but that's it, and otherwise it's a nice firm, progressive pedal.

Almost certainly still air in the system judging from your description - bleed, bleed and bleed some more, and finally trigger the ABS to purge it of any air that's trapped there. Air in the system gives long pedal travel and a spongy feel but won't cause pedal creep - pedal creep is when you're losing fluid and/or pressure in the system, typically from a leak or a failing MC.

Hmm. Its not spongy at all though, and with the engine off its rock solid, no creep, no sponginess. Meh, I'll leave it for now and let the brakes bed back in.
