Started refitting the calipers after a refurb, £125 a corner,halfway through fitting the last set we noticed the slider pins did not slide easily and found that the caliper bracket had'nt been cleaned out properly inside and a lot of the shot blasting material had been left behind.So now we are thinking maybe the same in the others we have already refitted,might be a one off................taking them all off tomorrow to check. bugger bugger bugger I'll be moaning on the phone Monday

Where did you have them done?
Mine were the same, fortunately I found out before refitting so I could clean them out and grease them. If they had been properly refurbished then new boots and grease should have been supplied. I got £50 refund.
