How much fluid did you run through it after no bubbles? I would have another person tap on it while bleeding. The vibrations will bust up bubbles that are hard to get out.

I meant that it is fully engaged at 3, but impossibly tight at 6!
Has anyone "adjusted" the parking brake thinking that adjusted the brakes? People do that.

And in reply to don brew, I'm almost certain that the rears were adjusted correctly, as I adjusted the first one, as I had previously done on my HHR. But then, I've been wrong many times before. That's why we had given up, as nothing we did made much difference.

The original questios was "brakes soft in forward narmal in reverse".. At least that is what I read.
My theory that the rear brakes are to blame was discounted so, the only other thing I can think of is the gremlin theory
