Well im no expert on cars but i changed my brakepads yesterday,and now it takes a few seconds everytime i brake for them to respond and if im going fast and want to stop in a hurry it takes a while to stop,so now i cant drive it until this is sorted as its really dangerous...Does this mean my brakes need bleeding..coz if i just pump the brakes i can hear air being pumped..and how do i go about bleeding the brakes if this is the case??

Any help is much appreciated !
