What do you need done to your brakes? DO you just need a pad change or do you need to turn the rotors and whatnot? The rotor turning will require a machine to do and most guys don't have one of these in their garage.

You mean the piston in the caliper
Did you disconnect the brake line....why did the fluid come rushing out?

That's what i was thinking by his description. Sux to have to dish out the extra $$ for the caliper.
