My rear caliper are a bit stiff, they have rubber rings in them and they look to have swollen up, are they replaceable or is there a way to fix them?

The stiff sliders is due to the design fail that is the rear discs on the 306 and 99% of the time the reason the handbrake is shit, if you un-bolt the calliper and remove the seals you can push them through and grease them/clean them and it should help Smile

not sure, I have a feeling that the rear callipers as a complete part and are a mad amount of money from peugeot, recon callipers were about £90 each exchange when I last got one IIRC
