Mitsubishi Expo Lrv Disc Brake Caliper in Canada

The disc brake caliper on the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Expo Lrv disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Mitsubishi Expo Lrv, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Expo Lrv interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.

Signs of a Failing Disc Brake Caliper on the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv

• Mitsubishi Expo Lrv pulls strongly to one side during braking, a seized caliper on one side applies more force
• Brake pedal on your Expo Lrv feels soft or spongy and improves after pumping, caliper piston seal leaking
• One brake pad on your Mitsubishi Expo Lrv axle wears significantly faster than its partner
• Brake drag on the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv, vehicle feels like it is fighting resistance at normal road speed
• Visible brake fluid leaking from the Expo Lrv caliper body or around the piston boot
• Grinding or scraping from one Mitsubishi Expo Lrv wheel that persists after confirming pads are not worn

New OEM-Spec vs. Remanufactured Calipers for the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv

New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv

New OEM-specification calipers for the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Expo Lrv factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Mitsubishi Expo Lrv and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Expo Lrv vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.

Remanufactured Calipers for the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv

Remanufactured calipers for the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Mitsubishi Expo Lrv replacement applications and offer excellent value.

Frequently Asked Questions - Mitsubishi Expo Lrv Disc Brake Caliper

Should I replace brake calipers on my Mitsubishi Expo Lrv in pairs?

It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Expo Lrv caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.

How long do disc brake calipers last on a Mitsubishi Expo Lrv in Canada?

Mitsubishi Expo Lrv calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but Canadian road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Expo Lrv caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Mitsubishi Expo Lrv well before that figure.

Can a sticking caliper on my Mitsubishi Expo Lrv damage my brake pads and rotors?

Yes. A Expo Lrv caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Mitsubishi Expo Lrv. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Expo Lrv and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
