A year after working on front left brake caliper slide pins, they were sticking along with the lower cylinder. So this time I replaced the pads and the entire caliper&bracket with a rebuilt one from AutoZone. Very easy if bolts not frozen. |
| 114000 mi US $13 |
CEL PO420 has come on twice in past 2 months during hot weather driving; I cleared it. ABS was buzzing, so I wire brushed the grounding wire eyelet and bolt to remove corrosion...fixed the problem. |
| 76315 mi C $425 |
Pads and Rotor worn beyond limits |
| 169000 mi US $800 |
Rusted drums, brake fluid leaking. Everything began to rust on body, time to trade in my baby. |

Seized right caliper destroyed the rotor. Cleaned both calipers, replaced pad and both rotors |
| 205000 mi US $40 |
Replaced rear brake pads. Pads wore prematurely due to a sticking caliper on the right side. Freed the caliper and cycled it. Hoping it will hold out for another 200,000. |
