Hello, The left front caliper on my 2001 Cadillac SLS slightly sticks when taking off after braking. I noticed this before I replaced the rotors and brake pads. Is there a way to fix this problem, or should I replace the caliper? Thanks ellis479

Re: front caliper sticks on take off 2001 SLS
The caliper slide pins could be binding or rusted, if ok the hose can also cause this.

Re: front caliper sticks on take off 2001 SLS
My money is on the hose.....replace it. Have seen it many times, they delaminate inside, causing a check valve effect..holding brake pressure in the caliper..
