Default 456 Brake problems need to pump pedal to stop

I have a 456 1999 Ferrari. Every so often I need to pump the pedals to fully stop. Any of you experience this or have a solution?

Sounds like you need to bleed the system. Check for leaks and look at your rotors to make sure they appear to be working. You may either have a MC seal or a caliper piston seal going. The best way is to pull all 4 wheels and check out the brakes.
