Re: unusual front end noise + chain slapping
Not ideal to use WD40 on calipers it doesnt do the seals any favours. sounds like they need a proper strip. pistons need removing, remove the seals, clean and scrape away all the corrosion in the recess, and if the seals are in good order refit, likewise for the pistons. any corrosion then replace,
SOunds like it will be less hassle to do a part ex with graeme france for a set of refurbed ones.
