so, put the wifes cold weather tyres on her car earlier, after i put them on i gave the wheel a spin and it was really stiff, it also sounded like it was in gear but i double checked and it was in "N" (autobox obviously).
i removed the wheels and both front caliper, removed the brake fluid resevior lid, and tried to push the caliper piston back in using my pushy-in-tool, both front calipers appear to be seized as they managed to bend my pushy-in-tool!
so, why does it sound like its in gear when its not?
and
whats the chances of both calipers being seized at the same time?
ps, the car is having its MOT as we speak so im guessing they would know if the calipers are seized?
