July 21, 20196 yr Hi all any advice on 2 pot brake callipers mine are sticking on a tight budget just now so trying to get even pre owned any advice would be much appreciated 👍👍👍
July 23, 20196 yr They are easy enough to refurb yourself if you can take it off the road for a bit - still not free but Big Red will sell you a refurb kit which would be better than paying for an unknown second hand pair

July 23, 20196 yr that caliper price is good - that abs sensor is a bit of a bummer Try adjusting the belt tension before spending out on the power steering
July 23, 20196 yr Author Yeah I thought that I will get that disks and pads 👍 I tried to adjust it and it didn’t help got quoted £190 for new one. The abs sensor is dear I saw ones on eBay but it’s hard to find the exact one for my car I don’t want to buy one and then it’s the wrong one hopefully after all this then I have a bit of luck with nothing going wrong car has been good but had to replace suspension arms to alloy had a wheel bearing that set me back £350 as everything was seized car was in garage 3days the rear shocks 2 sets of pads as calipers seizing and 4 tyres lol but I still love the car 🚙 thanks for your advice 👍
