    Quick facts

    • Part: Carlson 7744 brake caliper piston
    • Also called: disc brake caliper piston
    • Fits: the 1976-1979 Volkswagen Transporter and other vehicles
    • Position: Front

    A disc brake caliper piston that is worn, corroded or sticking can show up as the vehicle pulling to one side under braking, a brake that drags, or a soft pedal. A collapsed brake hose or a weak master cylinder can be behind those signs too, so have a shop find the cause before you replace the piston.

    Fits

    This front piston fits the 1976-1979 Volkswagen Transporter, the 1985 Volkswagen Transporter and the 1981-1984 Volkswagen Vanagon. The 1976-1979 and 1985 Volkswagen Transporter takes one, and the 1981-1984 Volkswagen Vanagon takes two. This listing is one piston, and front pistons are normally replaced on both sides together.

    How can I tell if a front caliper piston is sticking?

    A sticking piston can show as pulling to one side when you brake, or a brake that stays warm and drags. Have a shop test it, and have the brakes checked promptly rather than driving on them.
