As my car (91 900s) was sitting up for 6 months, the rear calipers seem to have seized on here, which makes it feel as if you are driving with the handbrake on!

Would anyone have a good contact point to source calipers, as they seem dear enough (when not working full time...) on the usual sites!

Thanks as always!:cheesy:

Rebuild kits are cheap enough - if you can take the time to soak 'em in some diesel to free them up, then re-seal and plenty of waterproof brake grease, they should last for years to come.

Same as 9000, AIUI...

I usually just hit them and take out the pins, lubricate sliding surfaces and pins and put them back... unless it is really seized should be OK
