    Un freeing pretty much seized rear caliper

    just wondered if there was a way i can free off the piston in a stubborn rear caliper. it does wind back in but it's f****n tight even with a wind back tool, would pumping the brake pedal and pushing it out when off the car help at all or am i wasting my time???

    cheers

    Get a rebuild kit from audi main dealer the only way to permantly sort this issue, exept for buying recon/new.
    Probably the longet S2 project in history EVER!

      Rebuild kits only amount to fresh seals for the pistons... a really stuck one needs to be properly refurbished - they are 80-100 quid ish on exchange basis depending on where you go.
