Bleeding Reverb

Experiencing some excessive drop when sitting on my stealth of around 10mm so decided to do a bleed last night to resolve. Did a full system bleed followed by a remote bleed but the problem remains.
Post returns up with good speed so I don't think it's directly a pressure issue plus the plunger is a touch slow on the return which to me fits in more with a hydraulic issue.
I have seen different methods of bleeding and I did remove the post end syringe first followed by the remote while it seems removing remote end first may be the better way followed by a secondary feed using the syringe in the post and the remote plunger.
Anyone have any input on the above?
Other than trying this I think this may be a warranty return.

Mine went back and got replaced very quickly.
Quite a common problem apparently. I decided to sell my warranty replacement.

They perform well enough, just the drop is a touch annoying on a ride.
