Brake Seal Life

Recommended Posts

I've just changed the seals on my 4 pot cosworth calipers, the car is 17 yrs old and has covered 90000mls. The pistons were in good nic, some minor corrosion on the outer edge but this easily rubbed out with wet/dry.

The important thing is to change your brake fluid on a regular basis, most manufacturers say every 2 to 3 yrs. If you leave it the fluid will begin to absorb moisture and eventually this causes corrosion in the calipers.

I change the fluid in my Cossie every 3 yrs and I use Dot5.1. Hope this is some help.
