We confirm whether the caliper or its flexible hose is at fault, replace the caliper, fit new pads where the old ones are damaged, bleed the system and road test the car.
A caliper that has seized will drag on the disc, pull the car to one side under braking, and cook one pad while the other barely wears. A leaking caliper leaves fluid on the inside of the wheel and loses pedal pressure. Michanic replaces brake calipers at your home or office.
A seized caliper does not stay a caliper problem for long. Constant drag overheats the disc and pad, warps the disc, and in bad cases damages the wheel bearing. A car pulling to one side under braking is also a roadworthy failure.
Our mechanics establish whether the fault is the caliper itself or the flexible brake hose feeding it, because a collapsed hose acts exactly like a seized caliper. The system is bled properly after fitting and road tested.
