Picked up my R32 rear calipers from the powder coating shop, now going to rebuild them.

Moving over to Flickr, sorry for the broken picture links!

Recondition my EGR valve today. Engine management light popped on, came up with a fault. So I took it out and took the black top cover and guess what?
This happen



moto was just rotating without doing anything when needed,  I've moved it to the left about 10mm so it full lock it doesn't come to that spot.
Saved my self £200 + labour for new egr valve. DIY :smiley:

Will break again.  Tried that trick before.  Always fails after a while.
