Guys

Does anyone know of a specialist in the South West of London region who i can trust my Williams with. Also is there any quick wins for releasing sticky rear calipers.

thanks

rear calipers - man they are always a pain in the rear. No quick wins.

Sliders - two per side with rubber covers top and bottom. if you can get them out - big clean and grease you should be good to go.

you might find its easier to get a new caliper though. The clio 172 ones seam to have a better hand brake mechanism if you want a upgrade.

Thanks Northy - would i need to change discs as well?

the 172 caliper is a direct fit. No changes to the disc.

But if your overhauling the rear brakes i would do new discs & pads for the price of them with fresh bearings in.
