Passenger rear is seized/stuck on my facelift EP3, as demonstrated by an awesome scraping sound (started after applying brakes yesterday) and the ability to cook an egg on the disc after a drive.
I guess there's:
- Rebuild the caliper, in which case, what do I need (and is it worth the effort)
- Buy new calipers (best place?)
- Refurbed calipers with an exchange (again, where's the best place?)
- Realize that as much as I like working on cars, it's a)cold, b)wet and that I should take it to a garrage and get ripped off (the least sensible option probably).
Anyway, from the above, who's used what, how did it work out, how much did it cost?
