to buy brakes..?..your local autoparts store. unless you want to upgrade...go ebay or pay through the nose for some name brand stuff of the same quality.

Actually, I bought a pair of rotors and a set of pads from Tire_Rack for a very reasonable price. Installed them, blead the brakes and was all set. The performance has been great. They shipped from Nevada in a day.


I also priced parts from a Georgia Acure dealer but decided to order from TR because of shipping distance.


I buy many parts online without trouble and often with a nice discount.

A driver should just need to check if there is an
Acura Vigor Brake Caliper leak. This is a dark-colored stain that can be found
on its body. This leaking was caused by the brake fluid which was not changed
when it had to be changed.</span>Edited by: bombs

I agree with bombs. I have found that changing my brake fluid eliminates the trouble that I was having with my rear calipers going bad frequently. They don't leak, but begin to drag on the rotor and cause abs to bug out.
