1. Como as pinças de freio são conectadas ao resto do sistema de frenagem?
The caliper assembly is usually located inside the wheel and is connected to the master cylinder by tubes, hoses and valves that direct brake fluid through the system. We could continue talking about brake calipers for days on end, but we'll show some restraint. Here's what you really need to know: Your brake calipers are very important.

2.Quando substituir as pinças de freio?
Em condições normais de condução, o calor gerado pelo sistema de frenagem pode enfraquecer e quebrar as vedações dentro das pinças ao longo do tempo.
If you don't drive often, they can get rusted, stained or dirty and start leaking brake fluid.
No entanto, você deve verificar seus freios imediatamente se ocorrer algum dos seguintes:
△Your brakes keep squeaking, squeaking, or rubbing
△Your brake or anti-lock braking system (ABS) warning light comes on
△Your car jerks or pulls to one side when braking
△You need to hit the brakes for them to work
△Your brake pedal feels unusually soft, squishy, or hard
△You notice a brake fluid leak around the wheels or the engine bay
