The caliper is finished in gray and designed for the leading axle position on Mini Cooper vehicles.

Common Applications and Problem Solving

• Replacement of worn or damaged disc brake calipers on Mini Cooper models
• Resolving brake drag or uneven pad wear caused by faulty calipers

Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires removal of the old caliper and proper mounting of the included bracket and abutment clips. Note that brake pads and mounting hardware are not included and must be sourced separately. Ensure the inlet fitting and bleeder screw threads (M10x1.0) are compatible with your brake lines and tools. Bleed the brake system thoroughly after installation to remove air and maintain optimal braking performance.
