Ok I went to get into my sho the other day and the brake pedal went almost to the floor, I then checked the fluid and it was fine. I drove it to autozone and got new front pads, put them in and no difference. I then bleed them and the right front had a bunch of air in it. After that they worked great until this morning I went to go drive and the pedal went to the floor again. I dont know whats causing this it just happened all of the sudden. PLEASE help this is my dd and I NEED a car to get to work.

check for leaks and push the brake pedal to see if you can get it to fall to the floor. don't just give it a quick push but give it constant pressure for a couple seconds to see if it moves. I think you may need a new master cylinder. you can also bleed the left rear and if you get a lot of air out of that line as well then it would even more strongly point to the master cylinder.

If you're getting the air immediately after cracking the bleeder screw, then you have a bad caliper.
