Rear brake calipers - Welshy_Pete - 09-03-2017
I have changed the rear discs and pads on my 306 hdi due to one side pads discs warn.
So I checked the calipers other side was fine 2 bolts moving smooth and winding caliper in and out.
The other side out of the 2 bolts 1 was not free moving sliding so greased it up and got it free so both worked also winding caliper in out out ok to.
But its still sticking slightly there a rubber boot with the arm for handbrake cable going in to it I think it might need greasing up in there?

Try removing the pistons dust boot, take the piston out a bit and use a toothbrush or similar to clean around it, then wind back in and replace boot. Sometimes small amount of debris gets in there and causes sticking.

Is the handbrake mechanism going all the way bacl to the stop?
