Thanks. I'll have a look at that.

I do have issue with water getting in to the spare tyre well, so it may be something to do with that. Another job I need to rectify.

Cheers,

Dan

Wanted: S8 D2 Brembo front calipers

Hi guys,

I'm after a pair of good condition front 4 pot calipers. Mine are black with 2 brake pads, not the 4 pads style. Think they're Brembo calipers?

Cheers.
