your not bleeding all of the air out or their is a tiny hole and air getting into ..........you may not notice any lose in fluid if it is only a small hole...

with cavaliers you have to bleed backwards..meaning you have to force the fluid back throw...or replace the line..either way just keep bleeding the line
