Why does my brake caliper keep sticking out?
They are pushing the brake pads against the brake disc to make the car reduce the speed. The brake caliper pistons have a rubber boot around them to prevent dust and other particles from coming into the brake system. It is quite common that this boot gets damaged, and water and other dust will come into the piston.
When to use handbrake or front brake caliper?
The handbrake prevents the car from rolling when the car is at a complete halt. In extreme circumstances, the driver can use the handbrake to stop the car when the brakes fail. The front brakes often play a greater role in bringing the car to a halt than the rear ones. This does not mean you should replace one and ignore the other.
