I need to sort out my girlfriends breaks they are shocking but i havnt done anything on break apart from helping with disks n pads (didnt do much myself)

Its a vauxhall tigra 1.6 so only front disks. The disks and pads are ok just a lot of travel on the peddle before somthing happens! and even when it dose they feel spungy.

Is it just a case of taking the wheel off then loosening the bleed nippel and pumping the breaks?

Or is there more to it? MOT is due next week so i want to sort them out.

Cheers
