How to properly detach and inspect brake calipers and Brake Caliper Bracket while ensuring safety and preventing fluid leakage on BMW 335i?

Insert the pedal prop and depress the brake pedal slightly to prevent brake fluid from escaping when detaching the brake lines. Raise the car and support it safely, then remove the wheels. For the left front wheel, work in the junction box within the wheel housing to separate the brake pad warning sensor electrical harness. For the right rear wheel, remove the right rear wheel well housing liner and then separate the brake pad warning sensor electrical harness in the junction box. At the brake caliper, loosen the brake hose fitting and use shop towels to catch any dripping brake fluid. Remove the pad carrier and caliper mounting bolts from the steering knuckle for the front caliper or from the wheel bearing carrier for the rear caliper. Lift off the caliper and spin the assembly off the hose, plugging any open fluid lines and ports. Inspect the brake caliper for signs of leakage and ensure the caliper piston slides smoothly into the caliper, replacing it if any faults are found. Installation follows the reverse order of removal, and the entire brake system must be bled before driving the car.

BMW 335i Brake Caliper

The Brake Caliper of the BMW 335i applies pressure to the rotor to stop your car. In every 335i, the Brake Caliper takes the hydraulic pressure generated by the master cylinder and transmits it to steel or phenolic pistons in a cast iron housing. The effective squeezing of the pads against the disc slows it down and thus sheds speed along with the brakes that resist fade. Over the years, BMW offered two dominant Brake Caliper designs for the 335i, floating units with single or twin inboard pistons and fixed units with opposing multi pistons for a stronger, more even bite. Sliding variants are mounted on guide pins and are lighter and cheaper to produce but require clean, greased slides to prevent them from sticking and wearing unevenly. By contrast, fixed types are bolted firmly in place and deliver a firmer pedal feel, like a true BMW. Many rear assemblies have a screw type parking mechanism so a Brake Caliper can also hold the car in place. Corrosion of piston bores may cause the 335i to drag, pull, or leak. Checking seals, boots, and pins keeps the Brake Caliper in good nick. The BMW sports sedan's expected confident braking delivers.
