Yes, both sides the same.

Still OK to currently drive on them? Just had brand new pads and discs fitted.

What did the garage say who fitted the pads and discs. They look ok from the pic as dry and no fluid leaking. But i'm guessing your better to replace sooner than later

They just said that the calipers will need replacing sooner than later. But should be OK to drive at the moment.

How much you looking at?+

If the calipers are ok, you just need new dust covers, you can buy repair kits . Google big red caliper. Otherwise it's gonna cost a lot. Garages these days don't do simple things they just bin and replace.

Unless they are physically binding, I cannot see anything wrong with them apart from rubber piston cover.
