Caliper Problem

02Type-S · Post by **02Type-S** » Fri Dec 04, 2009 4:15 pm

So the passenger rear caliper is getting stuck slightly compressed on the teg. After i stop, and take off again it is hella loud bc its dragging. Where would you reccommend for a cheap caliper?

I personally would NEVER buy a junk yard caliper. Just get one from Autozone or one of those parts stores. Life time warranty and it's not too expensive at all.

Just get a rebuild kit, if you want the cheapest route.

I'm having this problem on my teg too. Just bring the old one in as a core for autozone thats what I plan on doing.

You know, I was thinking the e-brake was involved..

The whole outer edge of that rotor is fucked. Weird.
