Strip the pads out and make sure its not the pads binding in their slots. My rear pads were binding in the slots on the stainless steel liners. I removed the pads, filed them top and bottom so they moved in the slots easily. Job done.

Knowing Ian, I`m sure it would be no `bother` to take a call from you

oh ok do rh do recons then?
just gonna have a look in the morning and see if its not the pad jamming in the housing, some grease might sort it out as its not sticking bad. just hear a slight squeal when coming to a hard stop when released. then goes after a bit, fine otherwise. thought it might be that the piston is not releasing correctly.
ill have a look in morning and diagnose
