My RX got another situation after the bad winter. It was bad steering wheel vibrating when I speed up 45 or more for few days. I checked up yesterday it was front right side caliper stuck and push the brake pads towards rotor and pads gone. I checked the caliper pins both are ok and easily I could push in by hand. Is there any way to make it normal by removing the caliper fluid hose and put it back and press the brake or so? If I need to replace which brand should I pick oem or aftermarket rebuild like Raybestos any recommendation welcome. Thanks.

 

I have had no issues with OEM and I plan to stick with them.

Make sure there is no mechanical reason for the hang and then purge out the old fluid. Usually the old fluid picks up moisture and in cold weather impacts the return flow. Just make sure you do not introduce air in the system.

One of these days I would like to get the low pressure system that goes on the master cylinder and all you have to do is loosen the purge nipple.

Thanks Salim.

 

Finally I changed both front calipers, rotors and pads today.
