How do you remove and refit the rear brake caliper on BMW 2500?

To remove and refit the caliper, raise and safely support the rear of the car, then take off the road wheel. If the caliper is being removed for access to other components, detach the two mounting bolts and carefully support the brake caliper to avoid straining the brake pipe. For dismantling, plug the fluid reservoir outlets, remove the brake pads, and then disconnect the brake pipe from the rear of the caliper, ensuring to plug the end of the pipe to keep dirt out. Lift the caliper from its mountings and refit it in the reverse order, bleeding the brake if the brake line was disconnected. The rear caliper, having two pistons instead of four, shares a similar design and construction with the front caliper, so follow the same dismantling and overhaul procedures, ensuring proper alignment of the piston face cut-outs during reassembly. For brake disc removal, detach the rear brake caliper without disconnecting the brake pipe, ensure the handbrake is fully released, and then separate the brake disc from the axle shaft, refitting it in reverse order while aligning the holes in the brake disc assembly with the stub axle flange.

BMW 2500 Brake Caliper

The Brake Caliper in BMW 2500 vehicles transforms hydraulic master cylinder pressure into mechanical force which enables brake pads to press against rotors for stopping the vehicle effectively. Both fixed and floating caliper systems appear in BMW 2500 models. Fixed calipers deliver their pressure uniformly across the rotor through multiple pistons to achieve heightened performance yet floating calipers only contain a single piston which executes brake pressure through moving the Brake Caliper body causing them to be more basic but they suffer from increased risk of malfunction like piston sticking. The field of Brake Caliper development has resulted in the creation of different systems with the swinging caliper being a notable example because it moves toward the rotor when vehicles brakes. Several Brake Caliper issues arise due to component defects and wear leading to brake pad unobviousness and leaks as well as irregular pad wear and dragging brakes. A regular inspection is mandatory for BMW 2500 vehicles to sustain their optimum brake functioning.
