When a caliper on the Pontiac G3 Wave seizes, leaks, or drags, the damage does not stop at the caliper. A partially seized caliper on your G3 Wave 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 Pontiac G3 Wave 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 Pontiac G3 Wave together.
The kit for your Pontiac G3 Wave includes the disc brake caliper at the correct left or right hand specification for the G3 Wave, either new OEM-spec or quality remanufactured to the Pontiac G3 Wave piston dimension and hydraulic pressure rating, brake pads in ceramic or semi-metallic formulation matched to the G3 Wave caliper and rotor specification, caliper hardware with slide pins, pin boots, and anti-rattle clips for correct caliper float on the Pontiac G3 Wave, brake lubricant for correct pin and shim installation on your G3 Wave, and copper washers or banjo bolt seals for the brake hose connection where required by the Pontiac G3 Wave application.
A caliper kit is the right call for the Pontiac G3 Wave in three specific situations. After a seized or dragging caliper, because the pads and often the rotor on your G3 Wave are already compromised. During a high-mileage G3 Wave overhaul at 150,000 kilometres or more, because caliper piston seals and guide pin boots on the Pontiac G3 Wave are typically at or beyond their service life. After a brake fluid leak at the caliper, because fluid contamination of the G3 Wave brake pad renders the friction material permanently ineffective on your Pontiac G3 Wave.
New OEM-specification calipers for the Pontiac G3 Wave are manufactured from fresh materials with no prior service history, the strongest choice for G3 Wave vehicles in high-corrosion environments. Remanufactured calipers use original Pontiac G3 Wave housings rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new units at a lower price point for most G3 Wave replacement applications.
Calipers for the Pontiac G3 Wave are the most position-specific brake component in the catalogue. Left and right calipers for the G3 Wave are not interchangeable. Our vehicle selector confirms the correct caliper kit for the Pontiac G3 Wave exact year, axle position, and left or right side before purchase.
Should I replace both calipers on my Pontiac G3 Wave at the same time?
It is strongly recommended. If one caliper on the Pontiac G3 Wave has seized or leaked, the caliper on the opposite side has experienced the same conditions and age on your G3 Wave. Replacing both restores balanced, even braking and eliminates the risk of the second G3 Wave caliper failing shortly after the first is replaced.
Do I need to bleed the brakes on my Pontiac G3 Wave after installing a caliper kit?
Yes. Opening the hydraulic circuit on the Pontiac G3 Wave to install the new caliper allows air to enter. After installation, the brake circuit on the G3 Wave must be bled at the caliper bleeder screw to purge all air and restore a firm, consistent brake pedal on your Pontiac G3 Wave.
What is the difference between a new and remanufactured caliper in the Pontiac G3 Wave kit?
A new caliper for the Pontiac G3 Wave has no prior service history and is the stronger choice for high-corrosion environments. A remanufactured caliper uses an original G3 Wave housing rebuilt with new pistons, seals, and boots, performing identically to new at a lower price point for most Pontiac G3 Wave applications.
