Yes 964 smalls on my car.
The problem is the metal inserts on my car have corroded and pushed out binding the pads even though I have filed the edges.
the screws holding them are all badly corroded. some of the rubber seals around teh pistons are also damaged
it may be a big job to get out the corroded screws and will take time If I cant get them out it will get very expensive. My car is needed every day so my idea is to buy new/used calipers fit them myself and refurb my calipers at my leasure or sell them on or both.
I have chance to get these calipers new at what appears to be a very reasonable price especialy if I can sell mine on.
edited to add. another option it to get a mechanic to do the job but My mechanic is quite far away so getting the car there and back is an issue.
also cost is a concideration. if my mechanic has trouble getting out the screws labour will start geting prohinative and he will probaly want the car for a few days which will also make things difficult.
while searching for a pair of used calipers I came across these brand new ones for the audi. If they will fit with an adapter it seems like it will be the most cost effective way of sorting out my brakes. Only IF they fit of course
