Fitment variant moves the price more than most buyers expect. The most affordable variant we track, front, w/o high performance brakes; LH, lists at a $71 median, while front, high performance brakes (opt 5JL), RH commands $250, a 252% gap inside the same part category. Confirm which variant your VIN requires before comparing quotes.

Model year matters too: 2016 units carry the lowest median at $50, while 2024 tops the table at $212. Parts from 2005–2020 are interchangeable, so if the 2016 fits your vehicle, it offers the best value across 16 compatible years.

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.
