Good call. I think many of our failures could be
cured by system fluid flushes. Hydro, brakes and
coolant. I just helped a friend with a Dorf Taurus
with 4 wheel disks. VERY similar rear wheel calipers.
Guess what, the calipers and rear brake bias valve
were all gunked up with brown/black crud. Another
case of pad stuffing. Just put new pads on and Wala.
A $79.95 brake job. No bleeding necessary. Unless
you actually keep the car.
