Title: Car help please Post by: ronnie21 on Wednesday, January 14, 2015, 08:08:03 Car in for MOT yesterday (Renault Grande Scenic) and although it passed got told that the caliper on the offside rear will need replacing. Can anybody tell me if this is (a) expensive or (b) a long job?

Can anybody tell me if this is (a) expensive or (b) a long job? I'd imagine the mechanic concerned could probably let you know. Brake calipers can be pricey though it shouldn't be too long a job.

A reliable back street garage shouldn't hurt the pocket too much. Title: Re: Car help please Post by: Bewster on Wednesday, January 14, 2015, 09:37:22 Had a calliper on my Honda CRV replaced last weekend (plus pads) - £167 and took about an hour.
