Long story short my rear N/S brake is leaking from the piston. Its a 2002 HDI estate.
I might see if i can get a caliper but i think the quickest way is if i replace the piston seals as im assuming this is what is leaking. Has any one had the pistons out and replaced the seals? Any advise for how to do it, i have some experience with brakes from being a cycle mechanic, my guess is that it wont be too dis-similar. Also where to get the seals from and is there a part number that anybody knows? The guys at my local have been pretty useless when trying to get parts in there before.
Cheers guys n gals.
