Leaky Rear Brake Caliper
#1
I discovered that my left rear brake caliper is leaking, pretty badly. Where the e-brake spring is, the fluid is coming from where the actuator for the e-brake enters the caliper, if that makes sense.
Do I need to rebuild the caliper? Replace it? Is this something simple?

I'd do the rebuild kit. Bleeding the brakes afterwards will probably make a huge difference, since there is probably a lot of air in the system now... and even more once you remove the caliper.
Good luck

Dont you have 4 piston calipers? I had to replace the calipers on my old GXL, I didnt bother rebuilding them as I have the tendency to **** **** up like that...I think I paid 65 for each of them(reman from Mazda).
