Detailed Description

This PowerStop brake caliper is engineered as an OE-style replacement for Acura RSX, Acura EL, and Honda Civic rear left applications. The L2679 follows the original caliper layout and uses a floating design with a cast iron housing and steel piston for consistent brake service. PowerStop remanufactures the caliper and bracket, then pressure tests each unit to confirm piston movement and help prevent leaks. The assembly is completed with new seals, slide pins where applicable, dust boots, bleeder screw, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips for a complete stock replacement solution. This part cross-references Monroe Shocks & Struts (e.g., 172286, 182286) for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Brake fluid leaks from a worn caliper assembly
• Uneven rear braking caused by sticking piston movement
• Corrosion or wear in the original caliper body
• Reduced braking response from damaged seals or boots
• Noise or drag related to worn slide components

Installation Notes and Tips

Fits 2002-2006 Acura RSX, rear left; 2001-2005 Acura EL, rear left; and 2002-2005 Honda Civic, rear left. Confirm bleeder screw thread size, piston diameter, and bracket style before installation. Brake system bleeding is required after caliper replacement, and the brake pads and rotor condition should be inspected during service.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop remanufactures this caliper in its Chicago facility and pressure tests each unit for piston operation and leak prevention. The use of new seals, dust boots, and stainless steel pad abutment clips supports consistent service quality for Acura RSX, Acura EL, and Honda Civic rear brake repair.
