rear calipers

[adrians1302]

after purchasing 046; i have a little dilemma with rear calipers. what are my best options? ideally would want to replace them.

Are the calipers damaged, missing or just need a rebuild?

For a concourse restore or you enjoy tinkering you'll probably want to rebuild them, here's the rebuild kit

For a simple swap over you can pick up pagid calipers from ECP, Ridex from Autodoc, TRW from not sure and some companies offer a swap service for your broken calipers.

Personally, I would rebuild them if you have the free time. This is the most costly option once they're shot blasted and painted.

A swap service is possibly more cost effective but don't have a swap service I could recommend so here's a link I found online

I used this service back in 2023 with absolutely no complaints-

Pardon our interruption...

I think this is the same place as @NickReilly063 uses for brake caliper re-furbs. I also sourced a PAS pump from them last year, no problems at all.

They're handy as you don't have to send them a set first and they give you plenty of time to post your old ones back to them as an exchange after you fit the ones they supply.

Yes that’s right Ed - they do a fantastic job in my view for not a lot of money


I paid £250 for a full set on the Clio and £300 for the Megane -

Having seen these in the metal, I can agree that they indeed do a great job. Looking lovely!

The splitters are my domain - that’s the correct one.

[Mike256]

As a heads up, the splitters are currently on back order and they're expecting inventory in a few weeks time.
