Brake Caliper Refurbishment – when to do it and what it involves
The brake caliper is a critical part of your braking system, responsible for pressing the pads against the disc and ensuring effective stopping power. Over time, calipers can seize, corrode, or develop uneven piston movement. Signs include the car pulling to one side when braking, overheated discs, or uneven pad wear.
At Alians Serwis in Lublin, we offer professional brake caliper refurbishment that restores full functionality without replacing the entire caliper. The process includes thorough cleaning, seal replacement, guide lubrication, a pressure test, and—if needed—piston replacement.
We regularly perform this service on models such as Volkswagen Passat B6, Audi A4 B8, Ford Mondeo, Honda Accord, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Seat Leon, and we also refurbish calipers on other passenger and commercial vehicles.
How brake caliper refurbishment works at Alians Serwis in Lublin
Once your car arrives at Juliana Fałata 18, our technician removes the caliper, disassembles it, and conducts a detailed inspection. Each caliper is cleaned mechanically and chemically, then reassembled with new repair kits (O-rings, dust boots, guide pins). We also check the condition of pistons and thread fittings.
After reassembly, the caliper undergoes a pressure test to ensure smooth operation and leak-free performance. Refurbishment typically takes from a few hours up to one day, depending on the caliper’s condition and parts availability.
This service is more cost-effective and eco-friendly than purchasing a new caliper, and when properly installed, it performs just as reliably.
