HI everyone, reading through the old posts i notice the rear calipers seizing on a4 b5's, whats the fix? all new or fixed, whats the likely costs? thanks in advance :thumbsup:

You can strip them and rebuild, but recon calipers arent that expensive.

I put two new calipers on my old FWD, and they were just over 50quid each.

thanks for that, seems reasonable

DIY rebuild may not work too well. Once they have seized they will be prone to it again shortly in my experience and if you think of the cost to get them reconditioned you might as well just replace instead.
Si.
