I have noticed recently that I have slightly more brake pedal travel than I used to get. Previously I could brake with the left side of my foot and blip the throttle with the right. Now the brake pedal is almost level with the throttle so its become more difficult. The actual power of the brakes seem about the same but with slightly more travel. There is still around 50% of the pads left and the disk are still quite good, I had them checked.

Any ideas on how I can restore the pedal position.

That I do not know. But It recently had a 48k service at an OPC, would it of been done then?
Not necessarily. It should be changed every 2 years. If it has been changed within that time, I suggest the first thing to do is get them bled.
 
I have just checked back through the paperwork I have, the Break fluid was changed in Nov 08 so not to long ago. Any Ideas?
