Market analysis

How much does a used Cadillac CTS brake caliper cost?

Asking prices for a used Cadillac CTS brake caliper are unusually spread out: the top listing asks more than ten times what the cheapest does, so which unit you pick matters more than the median. Condition matters: grade-A units (lowest mileage, best condition) carry roughly a 51% premium over grade-C stock, with grade-A medians at $68.

Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, rear, Base, LH, lists at a $49 median, while front, V-Series (supercharged), red, LH commands $292, a 496% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2018 units carry the lowest median at $49, while 2015 tops the table at $85. Parts from 2013–2019 are interchangeable, so if the 2018 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 7 compatible years.

Against comparable vehicles, the Cadillac CTS sits 75% below the Mercedes S Class ($280), 76% below the Mercedes GLE Class ($297), and level with the Ford Explorer ($70) for the same part. The “similar vehicles” cards below open each comparison guide.

Buying a used brake caliper: what to check

  1. Inspect piston shafts under dust boots: Peel back the rubber dust boot to confirm the hydraulic piston shaft has no rust pitting, flaking chrome, or fluid leakage.
  2. Check slide pin articulation: Verify that carrier slide pins move freely in their bores without binding, excessive slop, or torn rubber grease boots.
  3. Test bleeder screw rotation: Ensure the bleeder screw turns smoothly and is not rounded off, sheared, or seized solid in the caliper housing.
  4. Confirm mounting bracket inclusion: Verify the yard includes the matching carrier bracket and slide pins, as bolt spacing frequently varies across rotor size packages.
  5. Replace banjo bolt copper crush washers: Always install fresh soft copper crush washers on the brake line banjo fitting during installation to prevent high-pressure leaks.
