You said that this happens after a few good stops... Does it also happen if the 
car is stationary and you pump the pedal. If not I wonder if perhaps the 
calipers are hanging up a little and causing the brakes to get hot and "fade". 
This is essentially boiling the brake fluid and causing air in the lines. Did 
you happen to notice if the wheels were getting hot??
