Hi everyone, new to the forum and looking for some advice. Did a full brake job with pads and discs (OEM). Ran into the infamous seized front caliper and replaced that (OEM and ouch on the $$). No issues from any of that. About a week after the job, the left rear caliper started leading brake fluid from around the piston. Only place in town that had it in stock was Autozone, so I bought it and put it on. About a week later it started leaking, back and replace. Did this 4 times and thought it was a lost cause, so I tried a NAPA, two weeks later it starts leaking. All of these were just the caliper, not including the mounting bracket. So on the 6th try, I bought the entire bracket and caliper assembly loaded with pads from Napa and put that on. After a week, now its leaking... I am absolutely sure it's on right, I've got the factory service manuals and torqued it all properly, even had my torque wrench calibrated before this least round. Any idea at all what could be causing this? I've checked the axle and it is not leaking, was thinking maybe it was weeping or something. I'm at my wits end with this thing, any ideas at all? Thanks advance!
