I'll be interested in learning the source/reason is, for what you found on your car.

It's scheduled for a state inspection Monday morning, so I hope to have greater clarity after that. But I'm sure I'll just replace everything....I was pleasantly surprised by how cheap rebuilt OEM rear calipers are.
