    Universal joints advice needed

    how much then to replace 4x track rod ends?

    hi, did mine about 2 months ago, bought the ends from paddocks 30 quid for delphi [3 right hand thread and 1 left hand.] if the ends are seized heat the rod where the thread enters it that should do the trick. When you fit the new ends use plenty of copper slip on the threads, job jobbed.

    300 tdi brakes binding

    hi sounds like your caliper pistons are siezed. you have i believe 3 options.1 you can excercise the pistons.[remove one of the pads and pump the brake pedal once then push that piston back in then do the same to the opposite pad]option2 change the seals and pistons option 3 buy a new caliper.
