Its the same make that I replaced, begins with "A" I think but cant remember exactly.

It am having the same problem as I did before changing it which implies it was not the MC. The symptoms I got and still have are not "classic" MC related.

When I have had MC's fail in the past, you could always get the pedal to go to the floor by pressing it very slowly. Stamping ob it would work. It would happen at rest or when driving.

This problem never happens when stationary. I have tried in vain to replicate it many times! It only happens when driving and at any peddle pressure.

Hopefully replacing everything will solve the problem, although I would love to pin point it first.

Defo ADL stuff real good but not all factors supply it Proparts down here do ADL stuff not sure if Camberly autofactors do ????
Other thing did you use a easy bleed type of device to bleed brake far better than the old pumping the pedal gig that can damage seals in the master cylinder i vac my system out and let it suck the fluid in absolutly no chance of there being air in the system doing it that way

No did it the old skool way. Does it really mess up the seals? Not doubting you but if it did why does everyman and his dog still do it?

Can give problems pumping th pedal up and down particualy on old worn cylinders if you can imagine during normal use seals run up and down a area of the cylinder and they bed into that area you then crack the bleed nipple open and slam it to the floor seals then run over the complete are can turn them over or damage them been caught like that many a time hence why i either use easy bleed or Vac out the system and pull the fluid in
