Problem with brakes
I have a strange problem with brakes. Front right brake has 40-50 % less braking power then the left one (tested last week). Also, the brake pedal has a soft feeling. Rear brakes and handbrake are working perfectly. Front left brake is also working great. So far I’ve tried to bleed the air out several times and I've noticed no change at all.
What to do next?

thx

Problem with brakes
Check the whole right front brake assembly. So inspect lines for leaks, test the callipers manually for good operation, check pad position etc etc.

A wheel to steer the front of the car
A pedal to steer the rear

Problem solved!!!
I’ve checked the right calipers and find out that slider on the right one has been jammed. After little cleaning and putting new grease, replacing the front pads, everything is working fine now.
Hurray!
