Title: Sticky drivers side front caliper
Post by: Kalpesh on June 20, 2014, 07:40:29 am

Morning all,

Has anyone ever had this? Noticed yesterday on my drive home that the front drivers side alloy was really hot compared to the others and the car felt like it was holding back if that makes any sense what so ever, input appreciated

I've had a slightly sticking front caliper with my S3 brakes.

I took it all apart, cleaned and applied a high temp grease to all the slide pins and a little behind the piston seal. Loads better now  :happy2:
