Product Details

This Cardone Unloaded Caliper, part number 19-7043, is remanufactured to meet rigorous performance and quality standards. Each unit is pressure-tested for consistent brake operation, and worn internal components are replaced with new premium parts, including high-temperature EPDM rubber seals.

  • Sticking or seized caliper piston
  • Corrosion-related brake performance loss
  • Low or inconsistent brake pedal response caused by caliper issues

Installation Notes and Tips

Compatible With 2008-2016 Smart Fortwo front left brake service. Verify port sizes, piston style, and bracket requirements before installation. Use the brake fluid specified by the vehicle manufacturer, and replace fluid from a sealed container only. Bleed the system thoroughly after installation to remove trapped air and restore pedal feel. If the vehicle uses floating caliper pins, apply silicone grease to the mounting pins as recommended.

Quality Assurance

Cardone remanufactures this caliper using new premium components and pressure-testing procedures to support reliable brake performance. The process also reduces raw material and energy use compared with manufacturing a new part.
