Well been out there and jacked up the back and put on axle stands, two wheel drive and tried the accelerator and braking and it stopped both wheels..i even did them individually ...stopped them both ..so i am guessing the calipers are working ?

also noticed on the near side that the warning squeal shim wasn't sitting in correct position so moved it into place the squeal has stopped but still getting the rubbing sound ...if i get a chance will jack up the van and get somebody to film it with sound Smile

if nothing else i am learning loads about my brakes ...thanks for all the help and advice so far thumbright

:D

I'd say the damaged disk, no doubt the heat between caliper and disk

I think mine were 8mm o/d on the L300. I just raided my Quality Street tin of nuts and bolts until I found some that fitted! One of your neighbours will probably have a similar collection, unless you live in Poshland. Smile

And, being Bazza, he will have a tin full of left over ones that he doesn't know where he got them from, after he has refitted stuff. Twisted Evil
