[Mk2] [Turbo] Front caliper rebuild kit

[rossonza]

Hi guys. My turbo has a lightly sticking caliper so figured I'd fix it properly and rebuild it using a big red kit.

I was about to order when I remembered I had to order different pads for the marking on my rear calipers

Should this kit fit my front rev 2 turbo caliper? Are the markings only for rear pads (22v etc)

The kits from them are good but I don't like the small hex on the bleed nipples.

The front are different for rev1 so if you're is rev2+ then you should be good. I ordered a lot from them years ago and the print for the piston was just too big as I have a rev 1.

Thanks mate. I'm rev 2. So I'll get them ordered

Oh you may want to look at the condition of the slider bolts and the fixing bolts also.

Oh and please don't use copper grease on anything other than the back of the pads.
Use ceratec or red grease.

They're all brand new. I did a caliper refurb using all new slider bolts/clips etc. However the pistons looked ok. Presume some grit has got in behind this one brakes piston. Guess I'll find out soon lol
