Having removed and refurbished the rear calipers which had an inoperative handbrake and stuck pistions on the near side, I realised that I still had a brake issue but with the front nearside Brembo caliper. It was overheating and causing shuddering. I tried to remove pads myself to find out if the pistons were free/stuck but couldnt get the pads out. Had to take it to my local indy who has removed the pads which were badly stuck. Fortunately the calipers are all ok.
