    spongy pedal and unknown device

    what did you use to "grease the slider pins" silicone grease or a dry film lube I hope cause wheel bearing grease won't hold up to the temps and gets gummy. remove the after market stuff and try bleeding again.

    Getting a roof rack off

    If you are not worried aboul destroying the locks just drill the tumbler out use a .25" drill bit and run into it (just don't go all the way through)then the rest of the pins will fall out and it should come right apart it looks as if those locks are removable\replaceable anyway
