Title: rear calipers
Post by: al brown on 05 October 2011, 18:26:08

Hi, are the rear calipers the same on saloon/estate and engines. I understood the 2.6, 3.2 to be different and the rest the same. Can anyone confirm or ridicule so i can get a replacement as my drivers side has cracked.

Cheers    Al

I wonder why it cracked ? dont think Ive heard of that before.
Anyway, can anyone give a definite answer to this.The fella needs a caliper urgently, and I can probably supply him with one, but its best to be sure before sending it that its the correct caliper.

Not sure why, part of the piston where it contacts the pad is missing. Cant tell from driving it but you can see the line on the disk where it isnt rubbing the rust off.

Cheers Rob, so as long as I get one from a NON 2.6 or 3.2 I will be fine. Saloon and estate are the same, yes?
