I'm of the opinion that the calipers on the S are its only weak point. On mine, both front calipers seize depending on what mood they're in and now the rear passenger side caliper is also binding. The car doesn't like being left for days on end parked up in this cold weather.

Buying secondhand, especially if you don't know the mileage on them, will potentially prove problematic in the future.

Best to buy new or refurb your existing ones would be the wise choice - IMHO

 

I have spare pistons and seals if you know of anyone that can rebuild for you.

 

nope will just have to bite the bullet and get a new one.... poo

 

EBC refurb them, may places will charge you more than £110 JRT cuts out the middle man.

So you want an EBC refurbed one, i have bought all my calipers bar one from JRT (i made the mistake 1st buying one for £200 which was exactly the same as JRT's)

On high mileage S's the fronts go too.
