Where do u live ? best try a motor factor in your area you will probly
find them a lot cheaper.or halfords.and why dos it all need replaceing
has the car been sitting about. then it will only need cleaning.£900 is
a lot of money to pay out just for that.

Calipers are either £60 or £40 each depending on type from GSF, pads are
about £18 a set. They don't sell the pipes but I wouldn't think they're
too expensive. So somewhere in the £160 to £200 tops for parts unless
they're fiddling with tthe master cylinder which I doubt. Labour, well I
dunno as I'm only a dabbler but I bet a decent mechanic could do the lot
in 3 hours or so. So say £200 for labour.

Of course someone will be along soon to tell you that's rubbish but I'd
check out a local Pug/Citroen specialist before commiting yourself.

After having my '96 106 escapade L3 serviced a few weeks back they
told me that it would need a lot of work doing to the braking system
-  they wanted nearly £900 to do the work (main dealer prices).

They wanted £900 to replace the entire front braking system (calipers,
pads, flexi hoses etc). I've replaced the pads myself as they were
pretty worn, but I'm going to get someone else to replace the
Calipers.

Any ideas on a rough cost to replace both front calipers?

Cheers

The entire front braking system kaput? Might be worth getting a second
opinion. Sounds as if they have found some sort of fault, but are not sure
what it is, so the remedy is to change the lot - dead easy when you're
paying. Discs do wear out, so no doubt they might need doing, and you have
to vhange the pads at the same time.
Callipers? never changed one yet, and I have had cars far older than that.
Our '96 106 was fine.
Of course, if it has been left halfway down a slipway over a high tide, it
would be different.

So  where are you? G.S.F. All the parts you need to do your job on your
car, and they are cheap aswell. (i think i have to put my prices up)
