Replace a leaking or sticking front left caliper with this MANDO brake caliper, part number 16A5040. It is a new OE disc brake caliper and a direct replacement for the 2007-2010 Hyundai Elantra. See the Buyer's Guide tab for engine-specific details.
Why calipers wear out: Caliper failures are less common than pad replacements, but normal or heavy use wears a caliper over time and can lead to failure. Failures can include brake fluid leaks or pads that lock up, and both are major safety concerns.
Signs it may need replacing: Look for fluid wetness at the wheel, a pull to one side, a dragging wheel, or uneven pad wear. Other brake faults cause similar symptoms, so diagnose the system first. If the front left caliper is at fault, this 2007-2010 Hyundai Elantra brake caliper replacement is intended to address it.
Replacing calipers in pairs across an axle is commonly recommended for balanced braking. This listing covers the front left side only. After installation, bleed the brake hydraulic system as directed in the vehicle service information.
