I'm pretty sure I know where this is headed, but thought I'd get other opinions first. The left brake on my 2020 requires several pumps before it has any braking action. I plugged the LH port at the brake valve and it was rock solid. I swapped the lines left to right, and the problem went to the RH brake (so the problem stayed with the wheel). I swapped the brake lines back to the way they should be. I bled the LH brake and it works fine for a little while. However after letting it set for only a few minutes, it will get spongy again and require bleeding. If I let it set overnight it takes about 7-8 pumps before I get all the air out. If it's only a few minutes it takes maybe 1 pump. All signs seem to point to the problem being in the disk, which will involve pulling the wheel/final drive assembly. I'm hoping someone has another idea to try first. I'm really not looking forward to doing that. When you press both pedals at the same time the brake seems to work better. I know the equalizing valve can cause this problem sometimes, but since the brake gets solid when plugging the port it makes me think the problem lies elsewhere? Thanks in advance.
