so my 1.9 tdi saloon failed its mot miserably!!
well I tell a lie it was actually only one set of brake pads why it failed but the list of advisories didnt help matters!!
anyway upon checking things out I opted to replace all disks and pads as the disks was an advisory too
one of the rear calipers was slightly seized
so I'm thinking whether to rebuild the lot or replace!
they have all seen better days and the car has a lot of miles on 250,000+
the only thing thats putting me off buying new calipers is the price!! I can get cheaper ones but are they really worth it!
anyone had any success with cheap calipers and where from?
I can get all the parts to rebuild for £140 posted thats for all 4 calipers with pistons too
any wise words welcome
