Says I need 2 new calipers, I'm hoping They'll just clean up up though.

Can you get kits for the rears? I've seen some for the front on ebay, big red or something around £20.

Or do GSF do them?

Just some new Pads and maybe disc's and give the carriers a good clean or blast if you can, Worth checking the handbrake cables as well, Pattern ones are allot worse than the OE ones which are about the same price.

 

I know Pug do the fitting kit's

Disc and pads aren't that old, so I'm thinking it's something to do with the calipers. The cables are cheap pattern ones, but the handbrake has always been naff.

They've just decided it's not good enough this year, Maybe it's got worse? I can't really tell.

I have a spare caliper that's as bad as the ones on it. I'm looking at now and I think I nicked the rubbers off it at one point as they're missing.

The grease behind the rubber cap is all black and quite thick and almost hard.

I plan on cleaning it up anyway if I can get a kit with the rubbers for it so I have one ready to swap over at least.
