Product Details

PowerStop L2797 is part of the Autospecialty OE Replacement Brake Calipers line, a stock-replacement product line focused on direct-fit brake service. Each caliper is remanufactured with attention to piston movement, sealing surfaces, and corrosion-resistant service components, making it a practical choice for restoring front brake function on a Honda Civic, Honda Fit, or Acura RSX with the correct front left fitment.

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

Common Problems This Caliper Can Address

• Sticking or seized front left caliper piston
• Brake fluid leakage at the caliper
• Uneven front brake pad wear
• Poor brake pedal response caused by caliper wear
• Corrosion or damage to the original caliper housing

Installation Notes

• Verify front left position before installation.
• Confirm bleeder screw thread size is M10 x 1.25 during brake service.
• Inspect pads, rotors, and brake hoses before reassembly.
• Bleed the brake system after installation to remove air from the hydraulic circuit.
• Use the included mounting bracket and caliper slides where applicable to match the OE setup.

Quality Assurance

PowerStop remanufactures this caliper in its Chicago facility and pressure tests each unit to confirm piston operation and help prevent leaks. The assembly process uses new seals, slide pins where applicable, dust boots, bleeder screws, and stainless steel brake pad abutment clips for consistent service quality.
