Hmm,

Air in the lines.

As you use the brakes before they are dragging, the air expands and applies the brakes, causing the temperature to go higher, applying more more pressure.

The fact it releases as the brakes cool is prove it is just air in the lines.

Now bleeding the brakes is not an easy deal.

I would not attempt to bleed an e24 brake system without a pressure bleeder. I tried to have my wife operate the pedal while I bleed them.

She said the pressure bleeder was a better deal than the legal fees.

I have used as much as 2 liters of brake fluid to get a real deal bleed job.

Later,
