it appears i have fixed the problem. Or tho i am still eyeing off the ABS unit, The braes are better as i have rear brakes and front brakes, however, he front brakes are NOT compressing against the rotors evenly, I changed the caliper on one side and REGRET IT, It got stuk on and well u can imagine the look of my rotor after that, i changed it again and brakes are better but it is still not compressing evenly, :( anu ideas, i believe once i fix that it i will have great brakes, just then have to fix the abs kicking in way to early, :(

front pistons are cast iron with steel pistons,flash chromed---they sieze up.strip them and inspect,if ok replace the seals.rears are aluminium so you need the seals,by the time you bleed the system,it will have new fluid.if it needs it change or fit new seals in master.how many ks on the car?did mine a 270,000ks

i dont know how many ks they have done, they were changed on the car @ 130, 000 why i dont know I brought the the car at 170k and has now done just shy of 300k. I dont know if they were new or not but there is a recipt witht the books but i will pull the one i have spare apart and see what i can do with it .. Will this cause them to press the outter pads crocked??

possibly.but the guides can be siezed as well.they should slide easy,the piston should push back with a bit of force if on the car.push on it square and even,the seal is only about 4-5 mm sq.there is a guide lube.
