Brake Caliper Overhaul
A caliper assessment involves dismantling and examining the unit to understand pad wear or restricted movement. We inspect the piston, guide pins, protective boots and accessible mating surfaces. The purpose is to distinguish dirt that servicing can address from damage requiring parts or complete replacement. Further repairs are defined after inspection rather than automatically included in the assessment. You receive a description of caliper condition and a reasoned list of proposed next steps for approval.

- Restricted caliper movement.
What's included
