Clean the piston.
Take out pads.
Squeeze lever carefully, clean brakes, dabs a bit of mineral oil on the piston.
Back in again, see how it run.

I did the pistons. Seems to have sorted the play in the lever mostly.
But there is squish when I pull the lever in all the way, it bites the rotor then squish. And the lever comes in further than when new I think, although they did pull in a long way.I've done what, 7000miles since bled.
The rear brake level make a click noise when pulled all the way in.
Opinions?

@edscoble my right hand shifter has some play, this hasn't always been there. It will move a few mm forward and back without engaging the brake, no resistance in moving it.
Does that mean it needs bleeding?
