Triumph brake fix

I'm a new S3 owner of an '06 and am experiencing the typical mushy front brake as talked about on the forum. I took it into my local dealer and Triumph is shipping him parts as a fix out of "good will" but he had no idea what the parts were. Can anyone fill me in? thanks

Dealer just completed the repair and they are awesome. I never knew stopping could be so effortless.

yep, new pistons. I guess I should give it a couple of months but I'm hopeful.
