Hello me again !! The latest problem as the title suggests is the n/s rear caliper appears to be ££££ed, binding on , tap the caliper with a persuader and it frees off til you brake again :slap:
Have taken pads out and tried to move pistons out(by braking) so as to try and move them in and out manually as it were,but no joy they wont budge enough,but put pads back in ,free it off with a light tap or two with hammer then hit brake pedal and they are solid again...the pistons must only be moving a baw hair.
Have given the whole lot a good clean,wire brush,sand etc :pants: ....am i just aswell replacing calliper or are there repair kits for them. Thanks for any advice, :remybussi
Wish i had just saved a wee bit longer and got one with less bloody miles on it, bloody :cop: car
