Rear brakes/caliper advice



  immaculate clio 172
Hi all,
Looking to change rear pads on my 182, ahave ordered some mintex pads, have heard the sliders etc can be problematic for sticking etc, any advice on whether I should be looking to grease it all up or replace sliders etc while im doing the pads?

Do the pistons generally wind back in ok

Also anything on the front calipers I should be looking to pay particular attention to like the sliders etc?
Front discs and pads all fine but do want to give it all a good looking over with car being a recent purchase

Any advice much appreciated

Thanks

  A special one.
Yep rear pistons just wind back in bud.

Remove the rear pads and make sure the calipers slid back and forth freely.

If not then lube them up until they do, sometimes the grease is a little bit thick and doesn't make them slide to well.
