Ah nice, thanks for that. I've bought two new rears at this stage and have two spares that I'm hoping to eventually refurbish - up to now I was gonna reuse the old o-rings.



Is it a thing on these cars that the rear caliper gets dogs abuse with caliper pistons getting corroded? - Replaced OSR caliper at 130k and now NSR at 140K.
