Product Description

DFC Premium Caliper - Silver Zinc Coated is a brake hydraulics replacement part engineered for the rear right position. The silver zinc coated finish adds a protective layer against corrosion, which is important in brake system service where moisture and road exposure are common. Use part number 331-03618 to confirm the correct caliper for your application, especially when servicing a Hyundai Sonata rear right caliper, Kia Optima rear right caliper, or Hyundai XG350 rear right caliper.

This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

Common Issues This Caliper Can Address

• Rear brake drag caused by a sticking caliper
• Uneven rear brake pad wear on the right side
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper body or piston area
• Reduced braking performance from a worn hydraulic caliper
• Corrosion-related caliper seizure on older Hyundai and Kia vehicles

Confirm that the vehicle matches the listed fitment, including the 4-lug wheel note for the 2006 Kia Optima and the rear disc brake note for 2001-2002 Kia Optima applications. Inspect brake pads, rotors, hoses, and fluid condition during service, and bleed the brake system after caliper replacement.
