If you happened to have ABS ,I would think that you should purge the valves within the
ABS unit.

Don't they all have ABS? I also have an intermediate weird pedal issue as described above. Most times the pedal will feel fine, sometimes it travels too far.

Check all the rubber hoses...Bad caliper bad pad or caliper with air in it. Does the pedal come up when you pump it? Hows the pedal with engine off? on? need more info to help..

Sounds like normal ABS activation to me. When ABS comes on in my truck the pedal sinks a little and buzzes.

Is that what you are experiencing?

It's got to be air in them.
