Only part you didn't mention are the brake hoses (the flex line that runs to the caliper). When they go bad they can turn into a one way check valve for brake fluid.

Wats up, I had same issue with my e46 m3 it was my master cylinder. Make sure if you install a used one it had not been sitting around. They go bad. If you get a used one make sure it’s straight from a running donor car like I did. Good luck Mike bmw90m3
