Hi All
Anyone on here know of a good supplier for a reconditioned front brake caliper for a 97-01 2.0i ?
I'm a bit desperate as I have booked My Lude in with My local garage but they can't find one through their usual sources
Cheers all

Hi
TA for the reply
I managed to find a company online who had a reconditioned one in stock by a company called BUDWEG.
I should get it tomorrow
Cheers

how did the refurb go? I noticed my ATR callipers, the lip that holds the dust seal in place is fairly corroded which would make a refurb borderline unfeasible.

BUDWEG provides factory refurbed calipers.
I did mine by just disassembling, delivered to the paint shop, cleaned, powder-coated and then installed new internals myself. Was 50EUR for paint(all 4) and 15Eur for each internals

It went really well
Garage fitted the part and I simply sent My old one back to get a £36 surcharge refund
The company I used was
Brakeparts.co.uk
The part arrived the next day too

I recently fitted a refub oem front caliper. I got my one from local motorfactors and part was in an APEC box. I think it was about £90.
