I suspect we have an issue with the master cylinder since the issue gets better but then returns. I suspect the master has a leak and it is allowing air into the system.

Here is a guide that will help with replacing it.

Below is the info from the manual on how to replace this as well.

Let us know if you have questions. Thanks
