They are the original size but it's a tight fit. The plungers move freely but if they swell up again. Even a little bit. They will stick. I have half a mind to sand them down a bit as a preventative measure.
What's the part number? There is suppose to be an updated rebuild kit BUT nobody seems to have the right part number.
This is a problem that sram is aware of and will warranty. I just warrantied one for a customer yesterday. According to sram they have had some tolerance issues straight out of the factory that some of the Mc pistons are coming out slightly over sized and when they swell even the tiniest bit they stick. It has been an issue on both guide and the db5s. Call sram tech support, give them the serial off of the caliper and they will send out a new lever and hose kit.

Do you have the number for Asian countries like the Philippines?

Has anyone asked Sram about the new kit, and did they give a number?
It showed up on the new warranty ones I received in April. They came with the updated caliper from the ultimates so I think that means they are a 17' set.
This is what the DB5, R, RE updated lever piston assembly looks like. I wonder why RS was not part of the description, the service manual indicates that the lever piston is interchangeable.
Seems like the dragging points are a lot smaller in diameter.
