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