Just to be curious, and cause I am lazy I asked places like Midas how much to do my brakes including replacing all pads, both rear calipers, and rear rotors. They said $800 and being lazy isn't worth that. So I look in the chiltons to see if anything is different with honda disc brakes and ABS and it says because I have ABS don't work on it.. have a shop do it.. why??? It says it requires special bleeding equipment. WTF is special bleeding equip?

thats such bs
But ya know...I'll look in my helms manual under abs and see what the 'special tools' are...........oh hey! a service connector....aka - paperclip....special huh?

its no different, go for it
Ive worked on several abs equipped hondas and everything is exactly the same as in the standard models

Looks like one of the pistons is corrodes and locked up making the pad touch the rotor.. same with other side.. but not as bad
