i know its a real random one but this happend to a mate not a clio though he changed his caliper and put them on the wrong side upside down i believe the bleed nipples have to be at the top but dont quote on that !

back bleed nippes are facing down, front nipples are up, maybe you could be right, but i dont think u can put them the other way round?, it is the back 2 i have changed though.

have you tried pumping the brakes a few times??

and are you bleeding them properly??

Had the same problem after changing my fluid, you need to have the ABS firing while bleeding. RS tuner with an add-on or some other diagnostics kit.
Dealer sorted mine out. I put almost a litre through it with no joy. Some people on hear say all you have to do is go out in it and get the abs to kick in,
but if your brakes are as bad as mine were.....you will have to wait on the snow coming back.
