when you get a vehicle like this I would replace the calipers ...
most shops do this, even if good to get the profit up !
youR post is correct if you want to get a good amount of brake life..
what I have noticed is repair shops with a simple pad replacement push back the caliper pistons , then install pads , and bleed the brakes ....
this is a very bad habit !!!!!
firSt thing to do is , open bleed screw, then push back THE calIPER pistons ....
NOW THAT BAD FLUID GOES INTO THE BUCKET NOT THE abs MODULE...
