I've Got A Siezed Caliper

alexsmith · July 19, 2004

The front nearside caliper on my is200 is binding on and I'm getting alot of vibration through the steering wheel. Can anyone point me in the right direction in finding out what could be causing it before I have to take it to a dealer.

Thanks for the replies guy's, the caliper can be serviced but I'm getting it replaced, the pads are cooked but the disc is ok!... I thought it might be warped.

So...getting it all done today.

I'm keeping the knackered caliper...so Mat has a drivers side I've got a passenger side. So if you need a caliper you know where to come.
