I've changed the front pads on my 99 Accord sedan recently yet I feel that the brakes still don't quite cut it. When coming to a stop the pedal feels slightly loose and disconnected. And when coming to the final stages of the stop, the car seems to lunge a bit, as if one part of the rotor was catching better than the rest. I recently rented a car and noticed how quickly responsive the brake pedal was to the slightest press, and I would like to get that feeling in my pedal. Now I've read from two sources that brake fluid needs to be changed at an interval. One source on this forum, said every 72K (kms, I'm a Canuck). Another, the Wheels section of the Toronto Star, suggested every 2 years. My car is long overdue for this service it seems. Is it probable that changing the fluid on its own will solve my problems?

So I'll be changing my brake fluid, and I would like to do it myself. How much fluid will I need? I remember seeing a post on changing the pads, would that have sufficient info on bleeding my lines and getting new fluid in there? I don't want to screw this up and have air in my lines.
