Never nice to get an unexpected large bill. At least you caught it before the water pump failed as that could have been even more expensive.
Calipers are prone to sticking & brakes benefit from being stripped & cleaned once a year. I'm no mechanic & always get it done when the car is in for servicing.
The lumpiness you were experiencing is common & normally removed by a remap so good that it has disappeared for you. When my car was remapped after fitting an aftermarket exhaust it removed a flat spot that I hadn't realised I had until it wasn't there anymore.
Hopefully that's the last big bill you'll have for a while.
Enjoy Knockhill.
