My Ride: e61 520d with a bastard of a clutch
Default e61 520d clutch issues after new clutch install

hi all, i have a 520d e61 manual transmission, in the past days i tried to do the heavy job of replacing my clutch and flywheel as it was about time after 277.xxx km on the original clutch. After taking the gearbox off, i replaced the flywheel, clutch and bearing, cleaned everything and prepared for the transmission reinstall, fitted everything back, bleeded the clutch slave cylinder twice but had the disappointment of having the a worst clutch then before....the pedal feels mushy, soft and just barely engaging. Can someone please tell me what do i have to do? do i have to adjust the new clutch and how ? did any of you guys had issues like this before ?
