Hi guys. A cautionary tale that I hope will be of use. In a nutshell we discovered that our mechanic and very likely he had followed what previously had been done, had fitted the pad retaining spring ends in the wrong place. This resulted in the whole caliper feeling loose/floating about and wearing the pads at an angle overheating and cracking a piston. Very useful photos came up on google in next to no time. Cheers.1 point

Front Coil Springs Please Help
Nello reacted to MikeyRules for a question
As said earlier in the thread I didn't get a part number unfortunately. Just use a reg number off a late registered (2007 - 2014) Fiat Bravo 1.6/2.0 diesel off Autotrader or eBay and use that to order the springs. They're identical and cheap as chips!1 point -
Mikey (above) should be along soon and may be able to give you the part number as he has the same car - Just use a Bravo spring. Use my mate Paul Gilbert at MotorMech in central Birmingham - http://www.motor-mech.co.uk/index.asp Paul has looked after all my cars for years including my Delta. Top bloke.1 point
