How does that play out for four piston calipers?

Dumb luck?

And if you consider the mechanics, on release, the piston contracts FIRST due to seal flex. the outer then gets "kicked away" by rotor run out.

Crap! Why do the "inside" brake pads go wonky while the outers look great? - CalG 2016-06-22 20:12:45 (175 views)

    - well, it sounded good when I was typing (in my head) - ar-Rings 2016-06-23 08:55:40 (102 views)
- The rear calipers, yes? Exactly same, time for new calipers or rebuild I suppose. - RedBlackYellow 2016-06-22 22:15:14 (126 views)
