my dealership charges 132/hr brake flush is 160 so consider it to be cheap. do you have a preassure bleeder? if you replaced calipers let them gravity bleed and then go through the bleed procedure

I have simply used a pressure bleeder (motive) on both vettes and if I suspect air in the ABS module I take it out on the road and lock up the tires to accuate the ABS and that purges any air. Come back home and bleed again. Problems solved. If you still have problems, I would suspect trouble somewhere in the system that needs correcting.

Get a "Phoenix injector" and do the reverse bleed procedure with it. The DIY kit is about 80 bucks and you will never have to pay anyone to bleed your brakes or clutch again.
