If it is your pistons, you will need new pistons and seals kit (pistons £40 each) seals £30. Very easy to do your self, when you have the cals off just undo all bolts, the cals then brake in 2. After you have done this you will see what needs doing. Just make sure every thing is CLEAN and DRY befor you fit it all back to gether.
