Can anyone recommend a garage that can replace piston rings and seals on some brake calipers? They are not seized, this is a preventative measure.

 

 

That should be pretty straightforward for any garage. 

Generally it will be a little easier for a marque specific/favoured one.  What make is your car?

They are Alcon performance brakes, I have already sourced the parts.

Oh right, decent aftermarket stuff. 

I'd be tempted to have a word with one of the performance places in that case maybe.  South Coast Performance or P.A.C.E?

This really should be within the capability of any motor mechanic, unfortunately the practical training in things such as this is insufficient these days in my opinion. The overhauling of components is not as common as it once was and some of the skills required have become harder to find. You find that motorcycle technicians tend to be more suited to this kind of work, as there is still a lot of overhaul work carried out in that sector, rather than simply bolting on a replacement!
