no brake bite, poor pedal bite, pressure feels weak/ braking power no good.
Pedal doesnt feel spongy you just have to push really hard on brakes now to get sufficient response.. like what happens when discs are wet & you it brakes
I am a bit concerned.. any ideas what the issue could be?
I have new discs but still kept the original pads that were in the calipers for now ..so maybe this uneven connection is a problem till they bed in.
but I didnt expect it to be this poor .
I am also wondering if air in the abs unit would cause this?
Brakes bleed seemed to go ok so I wanted to get some feedback asap.
hopefully a solution comes soon

It sounds like you have air. Bleed it again and use the power bleeding process via bmw standard tools. It's described in this thread a number of times.
