My local Honda. I could have got it a couple of quid cheaper elsewhere but the parts guy gave me a hefty discount on the wadge of parts I got from them.

Cheers guys its cool, Im going to tackle it next week.

Not fun... LOTS of work there!
And I bet once you've done it all, the bitch STILL won't be grateful!

Post up some piccies of your caliper overhaul please?

Cheers

It's not like I have any major leaks, just the annoying ones that slowly cover your engine and gearbox in sludge.

Can do, although really its just cleaning out the slider pin barrels and fitting the new bits. Last time I noticed my slider pins were a bit pitted. My brakes work fine, I noticed the rubber boots were split so best to change it over now before things seize up.

Ta.
Yep I know it's not rocket science. I've re-built calipers on other cars before but the last ones I did were the front ones on my Xantia and they were a complete and utter bitch (and the overhaul wasn't fully successful so I ended up buying re-furbed ones anyway

). So really with that being my last experience I'm just wanting visible encouragement that lude ones can be done yourself

I suspect his offer is an empty one.

Never.....

No I'm being serious

I can burn stuff

I don't know how I'd get on refurbing my brakes and then trusting them, that's the problem
