MOT FAIL

[CL]

Arvo fellow zoners!

After months and months of patience, I have finally passed my test (again(!)) and thus took the Sport to get her MOT'd. I bought her off the zone last year, 325i Sport on a J Plate, Diamond Schwartz, pics will soon follow. Having been parked for a year I was expecting problems, but she came back with one; Binding Brakes. So guys, any suggestions? Is this a simple job? How much should I be charged, approximately?

Thank you in advance.

Just driving the thing will probably cure it!
Which brakes are binding?

Many thanks for the prompt response Brian.

Apparently all four?

I have been advised driving may cure the problem, but obviously can not without the MOT lol thus a bit of a catch 22 situation!

Could I simply get the prob repaired?

it's only surface rust on the discs or slightly seized calipers.

i have all four calipers for a sport if needed all with pads.

Thank you Magpie, man I love this site.

If needed, how much for all four mate?

Cheers

Cheers mate, I think J would be the last on the Sports, although you can get a 325i on a K. I think...
