Bleeding my brakes and got this:

Left bottle is the front, middle bottle is the rears, right bottle is the rears the second time. Reservoir is clear.

Right Rear seemed to be the the one that made the green. Sign the caliper is dieing or..? I'll flush again but this is a first for me.

I got none of these notifications.

Fluid is only a few months old, less than 5k miles. If you remember my thread about the soft pedal/master cylinder issues, @TooManyToys helped me with.

I found it odd it was only on the right rear. Google says it's moisture or copper. Easy day.

I still haven't got the brakes 100% what I think they should be. Stops just fine but I don't get the firm pedal evertime.

Everything that's been done to the brakes:
Front hard lines (motorcraft)
PMF hoses all the way around
Original calipers and pads
3rd master cylinder (motorcraft)
Dot3 super tech brake fluid
(Edit) slide pins have been cleaned and greased as well.
Only vehicles I've had brake issues with are powerstrokes..
