Honda Odyssey Disc Brake Caliper in US

The disc brake caliper on the Honda Odyssey is the hydraulic clamp at the centre of your Odyssey disc brake system. Every time you press the brake pedal on your Honda Odyssey, brake fluid pressure forces the caliper pistons outward, squeezing the brake pads against the rotor and generating the friction that stops your vehicle. A seized, leaking, or sticking caliper on the Odyssey interferes with that process at the source, causing uneven braking, accelerated pad and rotor wear, and pulling to one side that worsens over time.

Signs of a Failing Disc Brake Caliper on the Honda Odyssey

• Honda Odyssey pulls strongly to one side during braking, a seized caliper on one side applies more force
• Brake pedal on your Odyssey feels soft or spongy and improves after pumping, caliper piston seal leaking
• One brake pad on your Honda Odyssey axle wears significantly faster than its partner
• Brake drag on the Honda Odyssey, vehicle feels like it is fighting resistance at normal road speed
• Visible brake fluid leaking from the Odyssey caliper body or around the piston boot
• Grinding or scraping from one Honda Odyssey wheel that persists after confirming pads are not worn

New OEM-Spec vs. Remanufactured Calipers for the Honda Odyssey

New OEM-Specification Calipers for the Honda Odyssey

New OEM-specification calipers for the Honda Odyssey are brand-new units manufactured to the exact piston dimensions, seal specifications, and material tolerances of the original Odyssey factory part. They offer the longest service life on your Honda Odyssey and are the strongest choice for higher-mileage Odyssey vehicles or those operated in high-corrosion environments.

Remanufactured Calipers for the Honda Odyssey

Remanufactured calipers for the Honda Odyssey are original caliper housings completely disassembled, cleaned, inspected, and rebuilt with new pistons, seals, boots, and hardware. Quality remanufactured units perform identically to new calipers for most Honda Odyssey replacement applications and offer excellent value.

Frequently Asked Questions - Honda Odyssey Disc Brake Caliper

Should I replace brake calipers on my Honda Odyssey in pairs?

It is generally recommended to replace calipers as an axle pair on the Honda Odyssey, both left and right on the same axle, to maintain balanced braking. If one Odyssey caliper has failed, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same service conditions and is likely at a similar stage of wear.

How long do disc brake calipers last on a Honda Odyssey in US?

Honda Odyssey calipers typically last 100,000 to 150,000 kilometres, but American road salt and moisture accelerate corrosion of Odyssey caliper guide pins, slide pins, and piston seal boots, often causing premature failure on the Honda Odyssey well before that figure.

Can a sticking caliper on my Honda Odyssey damage my brake pads and rotors?

Yes. A Odyssey caliper that does not fully retract keeps the brake pad in partial contact with the rotor between stops, generating constant friction and heat on your Honda Odyssey. This rapidly wears both the pad and rotor surface on your Odyssey and generates enough heat buildup to damage adjacent components over time.
