RE: rear caliper --no ebrake////

[Anthony Pelletier <vwnuts@yahoo.com>]

they insist that because I have had the problem with 2
new ones that the problem must be the way that I am
installing it.  not their POS calipers.  I called
their tech line "staffed by ase certified tech's" and
all that they could tell me is compress the caliper
piston again, intall and have a helper slowly press
the brake while I actuate the ebrake lever.  
did anyone else have this problem or is it as common
as remamufactured fuel pumps not working( I have
played that game too_

btw aaron what is FLAPS ---cuase all I can think of is
F@#kin local autoparts store am I correct?

thanks
Tony
