The pedal is definately more firm but will comment more once I've also bled the rear brakes using the same method didn't have enough time today. It's not being moved until it's been done.
The brakes were properly bled using a pressure bleeding kit last year but I think at some point they haven't been bled properly.( probably when the main brake lines were changed before I bought the car).
If there's air in the system it can find it's way into the abs modulator where it will stay unless the system is bled as described above because the valves in the abs system only open when the ABS system operates.
You can bleed the system properly then when the ABS kicks in it can let the air trapped in the modulator into the brake system again.
