Hi guys,

I needed to change my front brakes pads and when I installed them today noticed that the smaller piston of the calliper does not engage at all. The bigger piston of the two works perfectly, this issue causes uneven wear on the pads!! I have disasemble the whole caliper and cleaned it out good, I did not replace the seals, just cleaned them and reasembled the whole thing. Flushed the system with new brake fluid and VIOLA, better then new!!!! The sponginess of the brakes are also a thing of the past!!
