Ive just bled them in the normal way, i think a Lexia can be used to help or something, but ive not found the need.

Did you clamp the flexible pipes and crack the caliper bleed nipples to push the pistons back in when changing the brake pads or, did you let the fluid go back up through the ABS into the reservoir?

Is the fluid level ok in the reservoir?
