Xantia II – Leaking front right caliper

Hi All

I have a leak from my Xantia’s II front right caliper. Is this mainly because of a work caliper piston ?

Thanks
Zohar

The Seal on the Brake piston could be worn. You could remove it from the car, pop the piston out the caliper and check the condition of the seal...

Hi Paul, there is no real risk of corrosion in most of his climate, so it's more likely to be the O-ring seal at the handbrake input lever.

Hi Addo

Is there any post describing how to replace this O-ring ? can it be bought separately or the whole clipper repairing kit is needed ?

Thanks
