Had a look today and found that the rubber gaitor around the piston appeared to be caught up around it plus the slider bolts didn't move all that freely. I have put some Comma Copper Ease on them and all seems ok at the mo. I will need to get another gaitor for the piston and for the slider bolts as they have tears in them too.
So okay i was wrong that is fubard you could buy the kit to refurb the caliper and change that seal but i have heard it is a pig to change, as has been said your best option would be to get a refurbed one and change it much easier in the long run
Yeah prob will get a refurbed one mate and stick it on for peace of mind. I have properly
cleaned everything and put comma copper ease on the sliders etc so should be ok till I come back from Tunisia in 3 weeks.

Had a similar problem a few weeks back. Thought it was sliders and sticky pads. Ended uP being the piston seized. Pig to remove but got it out and cleaned up with emmory and put back together. Never ran as smooth, like new now.
Looking at yours tho I'd get a replacement caliper, a. For less hastle and b. for peace of mind
