Sticky brake piston question..

03-17-2003, 01:15 AM

OK--had a buddy of mine replace my front rotors/pads today. When he removed the old pads and tried to compress one of the pistons on the right side, he had a pretty tough time. We sprayed on quite a bit of brake cleaner on both pistons and reinstalled it. The brakes seem to work fine. I've got a 2000 V6. Is this something I should worry about??
