Rear brake caliper

  Yesterday, I replaced the front rotors and pads on my '93 100CSQ Avant.  While I was at it,  I bled the brake system and filled with new fluid.  When I got to the left rear caliper the brake fluid was barely escaping through the bleed nipple.  I boosted the pressure on my bleeder to 25 psi which helped out slightly.  Has anyone experienced this?  I didn't take the time to disconnect the brake hose going in to the caliper to determine if I had adequate flow before going in to the caliper.  This caliper has emergency brake linkage as well.  I wonder if there is an internal problem with the caliper or possibly something wrong with the ABS controller?
