Hello all.
Don't shout i have done a search but all the info i find is for Disco's or Range Rover.
My 03 FL had a n/s caliper seize today. No stranger to this, it happened on a Rover 400 Diesel i had (loved that car) so knew what to do to get home. Got to a petrol station and cooled the wheel and brakes down with some water from there hose and gave the caliper a whack with a wooden mallet i had in the boot. This freed it off and with as little use of the brakes as possible got home on probs.
My question is.. Is the cure the same as my old faithful Rover 400?
IE new caliper and flexi hose?
Any advice welcome as we say. I do a lot of miles in summer along the Western Front of WWI ypres to the somme following Grandads foot steps so need the car to be right.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers
