Nissan Xterra Brake Calipers

Produced from 1999 to 2015, the Nissan Xterra is a mid-size SUV possessing good off-road qualities, which made the model especially appealing to young and active buyers. The vehicle was specifically designed to offer great off-road performance, yet it's suitable for being used on the paved roads as well and features surprising comfort in the cabin. A limited choice of engines underlined the adventure philosophy: the first generation was available with a bunch of engines with a 3.3-liter V6 (210 hp) on top of the line, but the second generation was offered in the U.S. with just a 4.0-liter V6 producing 265 HP. Powerful engines and off-road character put the brakes to the test, especially those components that suffer from high temperatures.

High stresses and hard working conditions may result in various malfunctions, so in order for your brakes to be always intact, have them inspected from time to time. Brake fluid has to be changed regularly, and the calipers require regular cleaning and lubricating. If any of the calipers' seals are torn, get the repair kit and replace the faulty seals. One of most common malfunctions is the caliper getting stuck onto the rotor. Abnormal grinding sounds when braking, the vehicle pulling from side to side, and leaks of the fluid are also among the most common symptoms of bad calipers.
