Caliper refurb seal kits.

Post by audi_driver79 » Thu Jun 23, 2022 11:41 am

As I decided to keep my car after all (was there ever any doubt really?) my next job is to refurn the front calipers. Has anyone bought a kit recently or sent them away and if so what sort of cost? TIA

I got some from BiggRed I think it was. My local specialist did the work. Seem fine to me. BiggRed also do caliper refurbs. They're in Worcester. I have used them before on another car.

I forget how much it was. Didn't seem unreasonable. The genuine brembo pistons are daft money if they need doing but I think there are reasonable alternatives for a lot less.
