Wednesday 10/21/2026 | 2013 | Boxster | Brakes

I am awaiting delivery of an MT 2017 718 Cayman S (used) which will be the most technologically advanced vehicle I've ever owned. All of my other current cars are pre OBDII manual transmissions so I am well accustomed to bump starting when stranded due to a dead battery, bad starter, failed clutch safety switch, etc. I'm a competent mechanic, do most of my own work from timing belts to ball joints so given some tools and/or ingenuity I can usually get a stranded car running. Concerned the ...

Pedro, I've just changed both rear brake rotors and pads but the left rear brake squeaks only goes away while touching brake pedal. I rebuilt the calipers several years ago (no noise) and car stops fine. The brake fluid is at correct level. The activation of the rear brake lever while moving does not stop the squeak. I'm thinking that I may need to replace the caliper. What do you recommend I do before replacing the caliper? ...
