Front brake, passenger side, tube thing??

Post by abe froman » Mon Jul 04, 2016 9:50 pm

Hello,

I was out washing the car tonight and noticed on the front brake (not ceramic) calliper on the passenger side only was a rubber like tube sticking out near the pad towards the back going up and over the back. Not on drivers side.

Just wondered if I've dislodged something or is it a speed sensor, etc?

Thanks.

Nothing to worry about, it's just a pad wear sensor and they're only fitted to one side.
