Ah that sounds just like my Sunday.

I wanted to take the Calipers off and clean the shims as I have some corrosion on the Brembos; they have the old problem with the pads going tight and sticking. So wanted to look and address that rather than grinding the pads down to help them fit better.

So yep, one bolt came off easy enough (Well with a breaker bar and heat)...



Then guess what happened next...



Hooray! And yes even with some heat the second bolt did not want to budge!

Checked the discs also and nice and true with no warping which is good to know even though they are getting a little old now. Was going to put some new discs on I had but that's a little hard if you cannot take the caliper off.



The judder looks like to be down to worn track rod ends so will order some Meyle ones to fix that problem. Finally which is really annoying the ABS sensor on that side is on its way out and throwing a code, cleaned it and that did not make much difference. Its rather frustrating the S8 with the 20" wheels has a different ABS sensor to the rest of the range (4D0927803E) and they are also damn expensive (£169!).
