Xantia Mk2 Front passenger brake caliper

Post by howiedean »

I've just noticed that the passenger front brake caliper has a slight Hyd weap from the gater where the hand brake connects. I've not had chance to strip it down yet, is it likely going to be a new caliper?

B*&ger the MOT is tomorrow. :(

regards

I would think that a secondhand one would be the quickest and cheapest option, or a new one if you can afford it!
