Brake Caliper/Knuckle Maintenance Inspection

Visually check the caliper for fluid leakage through the housing. If the housing is cracked or the casing is leaking, replace the caliper. Also, check for fluid leakage around the piston area, past the seal and boot, and service the caliper as needed.

When parts are to be replaced in the caliper, follow the inspection procedures.
