freelander 1 td4 2003 brakes

[nickc4]

Hi there,

Some months ago, fitted new discs from Interpart and Delphi brakes and squealed alot on my TD4 2003 when pressing pedal. Then I was told Delphi brakes were poo and changed them with Orginal Quality Pagid Brakes. Now Seems when veering to the right, slight squeaking from pads and when I press brakes it squeals. Also its seems to smell like they are overheating! Its like its rubbing slightly.

Any ideas what to do?

cheers

Sounds like a seized caliper and lack of copper ease.

Hi there,

What's best how to fix it? Can a caliper be fix if siezed?

Yes there are slider pins that need removing and cleaning.

That depends on tools and ability; not very hard, maybe 3 spanner rating

If you are in east Dorset then I could recommend a man
