Yeah inside worm more, How do I free it off? Copper grease?
OK I will have a look and let you guys no how I get on
OK, Are the piston and slider pin easy to repair without replacing them?
slider pins can in most cases clean up. a seized piston, id just order a new caliper.
Cheers Lads!
I will have a look tonight, dont really want to but a new calipar if I can help it. Been Quoted £140 a calipar by the local parts place.
Getting new disc's and pads for £87 which I thought was OK.

I've replaced both fronts on mine over the years for reman ones, got them from place called GSF do the for cheaper. Ask for paul cadmore
They don't seem to have any calipars online. I will give them a call.
Right, so last night I went and picked up some blue print discs and delphi pads.
Got everything off, and the pads were destroyed! Disc's looked bad but I have seen worse.
So we proceded to change everything over, the calipar piston wound back with no problem
So now I have fresh disc's and pads on the rear of the car.
Thanks all for the advice!! much appreciated.
