My lovely, rebuilt O/S caliper last July
Is not so lovely any more :shock:
The large piston has fluid in the dust seal, and the smaller ones are leaking so much fluid that BP are asking for suggestions :shock:
The disc has been soaked, pads are ruined (green stuff ones too), and I am a bit miffed.
They have only covered about 1,500 miles. I am a little concerned at the state of the pistons, they have a scoring around them
And they also seem to be slightly ribbed :?:
It's more the leaking I am worried about though, than what they look like. Has anyone else seen anything like this? or have I rebuilt them badly? Can you rebuild them badly? Bit confused here.
I bought these pistons and the new seal kit from a reputable supplier btw, so they aren't cheapies.
Any ideas?
Richard
