I did the brembo upgrade on my 2g. I did the bleeding procedure according to the picture. Everything seemed fine with no leaks and I had a stiff pedal. I read that many people do not upgrade to the 3g booster so I decided not to. But The fluid reservoir was not going down after the bleeding so I thought everything was fine. I started the car for the first time in a while and after I started It I noticed the reservoir was dry. I dont know if it was dry before I started it or not. Is there something I am doing wrong during the procedure? Is the car supposed to be running when bleeding? Am I supposed to bleed the bleeders at the same time? It is just weird after the process It seemed fine then a week later it was dry. After the process I did not notice the reservoir going down at all.

So what was it that was causing it?
 
Not sure what the issue was at first. But after more reading I learned that should get the 3g master. After bleeding that and then the brakes everything went well. Maybe the stock master couldn't move enough fluid. Not sure. But after I replaced the master everything went nice and smooth.
 
You was on the stock MC! Thats the problem, the flares never mated correctly and leaking air in, that was your issue,
