Yeah was quite pleased that the cables were ok! Like already said by Wasa, not expensive to fix but shouldn't of needed to be fixed in the first place!

I dont know, but if the pads got that hot would it have boiled the brake fluid?? If so is it worth bleeding some off, or would the fluid just cool down and be OK???

Fluid should be ok if it's new but to be sure it's best to bleed it off anyway!! The brake fluid should be changes every 2 years anyway
