Hi all,

Changing my front and back discs and pads today, and as I was getting to the last bit on the first brake set, I couldn’t get the little rear caliper adjustor back in with the Allen key.
I pulled it back out and it seems to have worn down a fair bit and it looks like it won’t catch on the inside to screw it back in.
I had a quick search on mx5 parts but they won’t have any in for a month apparently.
Are these little parts something a scrapyard might keep or am I looking at maybe just buying a new caliper and making sure that they’ve got the adjustors in there?

Or, if anyone has any spare adjustors or spare calipers with the part in, there is cash waiting!

Cheers
Steve

Got to be worth trying some of the specialist breakers. Try:

Mazdadudes,
North Yorkshire MX5s
Suffolk MX5
Autolink
MX5 Heaven

Worth a wanted advert on one of the many Facebook groups too.
