IMHO your best bet is to get some cheap-o brakes to put on and send yours for refurb.....Then you know what condition they are gonna be in when they return.

i took the wheel off today and found the culprit, one of the top pistons sticks i released it, its still stuck tho because it still smells after i drive it, not as bad a smell now though, i dont drive the car because it definitely cant be doing it any good!
i dont know any refurbing places here in the west midlands.

anyone know??
