2. Remove wheels and tires.
3. When inspection and service or repair is complete, reinstall wheel assemblies and torque lug nuts to proper specifications.
4. Visually check disc brake caliper. If caliper housing is leaking, it must be replaced.
5. If a seal is leaking, disc brake caliper must be disassembled and new seals and dust boot installed.
6. If caliper piston is seized in the bore, a new disc brake caliper is required.
