Motorworks doesn't list 'em in their catalog, and Bill & > Steve's can only get rebuilds. I can rebuild yours, or exchange it for a good rebuilt one, as long as it's an OE caliper. (I won't take a replacement version in exchange.) A bad rubber flex line to that caliper could also cause this, except for your observation that just ONE piston was sticky. So this is pretty clear, and you want to fix this right away before it wears out the pad and ruins your new rotor. I have a good rebuilt done and sitting on the shelf here, so I could ship it as soon as I saw yours to verify that it's the correct part for exchange. Please contact me off list if you are interested. -- ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ List info at http://www.vwtype3.org/list | mailto:gregm@vwtype3.org
