Hi There,
Just wondering if you could give me a couple of ideas as I have come to a blank. I've got an XA with discs on the rear . The calipers are the worm screw type. Now whats happened is I went to change the pads and screwed the piston back in and fitted the pads and bolted them back on and went to bleed them but they no work. I think it's the right hand side causing the issues. So, I took it back of, unbolted the handbrake assembly, had a look inside and everything looked ok, bolted it back together and still no good. I got my wife in the car to press the brakes while I played with the bleed screw, but there doesn't seem to be enough fluid coming through. There was a fair bit of air that came out everytime the pedal went down, but I didn't feel it was a full pedals worth. I took the caliper off and then pressed the brakes to see if they would squeeze in but I dont think it moved. If the caliper is seized would there still be any fluid coming through the bleed screw when I'm tring to bleed it? Is there any other ways I can check to see if the calipers working or not? Thanks for any help, Sam.
