Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston P/N:7083
$20.99

Keep your rear brakes clamping evenly with the Carlson Disc Brake Caliper Piston 7083. This rear caliper piston is a direct-fit replacement for the listed applications: the 2005-2011 Audi A6, 2005-2011 Audi A6 Quattro, 2020-2022 Ford Explorer, and 2020-2021 Honda Clarity (All engines). It transfers hydraulic brake-fluid pressure from the caliper bore out to the brake pad, pressing it against the rotor each time you apply the brakes.

  • Rear caliper piston: cataloged for the rear brake caliper position.
  • Hydraulic actuation: converts fluid pressure in the caliper bore into the force that pushes the pad against the rotor.
  • Sold individually: each listed application uses two pistons, so order 2 for a complete rear replacement.
  • Signs it may need replacing: a corroded or pitted piston, a sticking or seized piston, brake drag, or uneven pad wear.

If a worn or seized piston is the cause of your rear brake problem, this replaces it. Because rear pistons work as a set, it's best practice to service both sides together for balanced braking, and to consult the vehicle service information for the correct caliper seals, fasteners, and whether any may be reused. Diagnose the underlying cause before replacing. Manufacturer part number 7083.
