Trying to change the pads on my friends Clio 197, which has brembo front brakes. Its meant to be a case of hammer the pins out, replace pads, hammer pins back in.

However, the pins are totally seized solid, and will not budge. Dont want to put heat on them as its a nice shiny aluminium calliper! Am I going to have to drill the fuckers out?

Obviously pads are a consumable, but the calliper and pins should be covered under warranty IMO.
