Brake Calipers

Brake caliper act as arm clamps for your disc braking system. They are the mechanism that pushes your brake pads forward into the rotor discs behind your car's wheels to slow and stop momentum.

Brake Calipers | How They Work and When to Change Them

Brake calipers are an assembly of parts consisting of a mounting bracket, piston and various clips and pins. The brake calipers are also connected to the brake lines that lead to your brake pedal. When the pedal is pressed, the brake fluid pressurizes and moves the piston of the caliper. The caliper engages the connected brake pads and forces them onto the brake rotor surface. The friction and heat created is what slows and stops your Audi.

Calipers can remain reliable for several years and beyond 60,000 kilometers if used lightly. Depending on your driving environment and driving style, you could see a shorter or even longer caliper lifespan. When they begin to fail though, you may notice brake fluid leaks or experience abnormal grinding noises when stopping. You may even feel a pull or a drag when braking. When this begins to happen, seek an immediate inspection and find the replacement parts inside our online Audi catalog.
