Car Forum / Peugeot Cars / May 2005306 brake caliper seized...
My passenger side front brake caliper has seized. (1997 1.4 Style) Is there any way I can free it up again, or do I need to replace it? If replacement is required what would be a ball park figure of getting it done at a garage? Thanks. >My passenger side front brake caliper has seized.

But before you buy them, remove the pads and pump the piston nearly out and see whether there is any corrosion on the piston. If so, get a new caliper. Should be around £100, I think, at a factors or online, and a garage should take no more than an hour to fit and bleed. These normally seize due to not changing brake fluid regularly (every two years at least).
