Nissan Murano Disc Brake Caliper Kit in US

When a caliper on the Nissan Murano seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your Murano keeps the brake pad in continuous contact with the rotor, wearing the pad unevenly and scoring the rotor surface. By the time the caliper on the Nissan Murano is identified as the fault, the pads are typically worn asymmetrically and the rotor is damaged. A caliper kit from GeoBrakes addresses every compromised component on your Nissan Murano together.

What Is Included in the Nissan Murano Disc Brake Caliper Kit

The kit for your Nissan Murano includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the Murano, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Nissan Murano piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the Murano caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Nissan Murano, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your Murano, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Nissan Murano application.

When a Caliper Kit Is the Correct Service Choice for the Nissan Murano

A caliper kit is the right call for the Nissan Murano in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your Murano are already compromised. During a high-mileage Murano overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Nissan Murano are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the Murano brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Nissan Murano.

New vs. Remanufactured Caliper for the Nissan Murano

New OEM-specification calipers for the Nissan Murano are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for Murano vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Nissan Murano housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most Murano replacement applications.

Signs the Caliper Kit on Your Nissan Murano Is Due

• Nissan Murano pulling to one side during braking, one caliper applying more force than the other
• One brake pad on your Murano worn significantly more than its pair on the same axle
• Brake drag on the Nissan Murano with a wheel that runs hot after normal driving
• Soft or sinking Murano brake pedal caused by a caliper piston seal leak
• Brake fluid visible around the Nissan Murano caliper piston boot
• Persistent metallic dragging noise from one Murano corner not explained by worn pads

Why GeoBrakes for the Nissan Murano Caliper Kit

Calipers for the Nissan Murano are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the Murano are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Nissan Murano exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.

Frequently Asked Questions - Nissan Murano Disc Brake Caliper Kits

Should I replace both calipers on my Nissan Murano at the same time?

It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Nissan Murano has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your Murano. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second Murano caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.

Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Nissan Murano after installing a caliper kit?

Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Nissan Murano to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the Murano must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Nissan Murano.

What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Nissan Murano kit?

A new caliper for the Nissan Murano has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original Murano housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Nissan Murano applications.
