GTI Caliper Issue - Seized 'Slider/Damper' ???
#8
Ok, update, Dan, it's cool mate, i'll see how much the new bolts cost... will keep you in the loop Smile

So, i managed to get both out, the 2nd was an absoloute PITA - ended up BENDING the bolt, mental - got a drill and wire brush adapter and blitz'd them for couple of hours, hands are killing but they look clean and fresh now, gave them a lick of black hammerite and they should be fine.

As for the main piston, would you be able to test them with your hands? i can compress them and it squirts everywhere, good enough?

Anton, i found them on ebay and sent them a message for the specific part, i'm not sure what im looking for/size/spec etc.
