Hi does anyone know if the rear disc calliper Pistons are left or right hand windback?
I am fairly sure that the C3 was left hand but they may be different
C3 Aircross rear disc

Just replaced all my discs and pads - with Brembo. The rear discs have the wheel bearing and ABS ring incorporated so cost a bit more - however I was very disappointed in the state of the original factory fitted discs after 17k miles. Huge gouges in the rotors and rust everywhere, so went for the Brembos all round. Very pleased with the quality.

My rear discs were shot after about 16000 miles too....Very disappointed.... And yes, the bearings are incorporated into the disc so they do cost more to replace. But the new ones they have put on look and feel a million times better quality.

I didn't want a repeat of the originals, so that's why I opted for Brembo all round including the pads. 6 Months later and they're still as smooth as when new.
