Seized Rear Caliper

[Mister_G]

Hi guys,

Been having a few issues with brakes so took it in for a fluid change and a report on pads/discs condition.

Need new rear pads but other than that all is ok. However, the piston seal has gone on my rear drivers side caliper and it's seizing up.

Question is, does anyone know where I can get a reconditioned caliper from? Or roughly how much I'd be looking at for a new caliper?? Cheers.

I think Renault do recon calipers

Cool I'll give the local dealer a call.

Just been quoted £190 + vat to supply and fit by an independent garage. How's that sound?

They quoted:
£79.56 for caliper
£26.52 for pads
£3-5 for fluid top up
£80 for labour

All plus vat.
