Always replace calipers in pairs. Loosen lug nuts, raise vehicle, and remove wheels. Disconnect brake line from caliper and plug it. Remove caliper mounting bolts and detach caliper. Install new caliper, replace sealing washers, tighten bolts, and bleed brake system. Reinstall wheels, lower vehicle, and tighten lug nuts. Repeat for rear calipers, including detaching parking brake cable.

To replace or to fix brake caliper, one has to ensure that the master cylinder reservoir does not run dry so that there is no air locked in the brake system because if this occurs, it will be required a complete bleed of the whole brake system. First, see to it that you start with suctioning or using a turkey baster that is clean and then take out approximately 50% of the brake fluid of the master cylinder. Lift the car and maintain it in such a manner that it will not fall, then dismiss the tyre and the wheel assembly. Loosen the bolts fastening the caliper mounting and then unscrew the mounting and detach the caliper bracket from the rotor assembly. If only to get to other components or change the pads, hold the caliper from the suspension with mechanic's wire and leave the brake hose connected. For disembowelment, remove the brake hoe and fix a socket to it so that the fluid does not spill all over. Then, it is essential to come off the caliper mounting bracket bolts and, followed by the bracket itself. For the installation, one will have to pull the piston back into the caliper using a large C-clip, clean the steering knuckle abutments with multi-purpose grease and screw on the caliper bracket with the mounting bolts. This should align the caliper and brake pad assembly on top of the rotor in the installation onto the steering knuckle or support bracket. Replace the hose if it was removed and fill the master cylinder with new brake fluid and bleed the brake system. Install the wheel and tire, drop the car and again, torque the lug nuts to standard measure. Press the brake pedal with short movements till the metallic parts of the brake linings are in contact and pressure has been regained and no movement of the vehicle is allowed until a solid pedal is obtained. Last but not the least, during the road test ensure you test the brakes by leading to an application. When performing caliper overhaul, the caliper must be unbolted from the vehicle and placed on a clean bench, where when using compressed air one should not position fingers in front of the pistons. Place another shop towel or a wooden block underneath the piston to catch it and then blow compressed air to remove it, as a result of this the user should check for signs of wear and tear on the piston. If so do this by turning the piston backwards to lie flat, undo the anti rattle clip and then gently ease out the caliper boot and the piston seal. Remove the brake bleeder valve cap and get to check the caliper bore and caliper piston for signs of wear. Polish lightly with crocus cloth, wipe off with denatured alcohol and dry all parts with compressed air. Among them, new seals and bleeder valve and cap, boots and piston and the caliper have to be lubricated and then installed. Then using the same driving tool secure the boots, replace the caliper and the wheel along with the tire and finally lower the car and appropriately bleeding the brake system.
