MPA Electrical BC182589 Disc Brake Caliper - Rear Left

Disc Brake Caliper Overview

MPA Electrical BC182589 is a remanufactured disc brake caliper built for rear left applications with a floating design and cast iron housing. It is listed for Honda Element, Acura TL, and Acura CL fitments, with coverage that spans multiple model years.

This caliper uses a steel piston, coated finish, and includes the mounting bracket and slides. The remanufacturing process focuses on core inspection, thread cleaning, and final go/no-go checks to help deliver consistent brake system performance.

Key Features

• Remanufactured disc brake caliper for brake hydraulic service
• Floating caliper design with cast iron casting material
• Steel piston construction with one piston per caliper
• Coated silver finish for corrosion resistance and OE-style appearance
• Mounting bracket and caliper slides included
• Mounting hardware is listed as included; mounting bolts are not included
• Pads are not included

Detailed Description

BC182589 is a remanufactured rear left disc brake caliper engineered for direct replacement service in select Honda Element, Acura TL, and Acura CL applications. The cast iron body is finished with a corrosion-resistant coating, while the steel piston and cleaned threads support proper assembly and sealing. MPA Electrical remanufactures calipers through multiple quality checkpoints, including inspection of reusable steel components, replacement of phenolic pistons with new parts, and final approval testing before release. This part cross-references Honda 06433SOK505 for the same application.

Common Repair Uses

• Restores brake hydraulic clamping force when the original caliper is sticking or seized
• Addresses uneven pad wear caused by caliper drag
• Helps correct fluid leakage from worn seals or damaged caliper surfaces
• Replaces a corroded or pitted caliper housing
• Supports brake service when the piston or slides no longer move smoothly

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear left fitment before ordering and confirm the inlet thread diameter and mounting hole diameter match the original unit. Inspect brake hoses, pads, and rotor condition during installation, and bleed the brake system after replacement. Because pads are not included, reuse or replace them separately as needed.

Quality Assurance

MPA Electrical remanufactures calipers in an IATF 16949 facility and subjects cores to inspection, cleaning, machining, and final testing before assembly. Severely corroded or pitted cores are rejected early in the process, and reusable components are checked before reuse to maintain consistent quality.
