    Hello.
    Please help me with what and where to lubricate the brake caliper when replacing the pads.
    I have already dismantled the clamp, I know what it looks like, I have pre-selected two types of spreads:
    1. ATE Plastilube - for lubricating the pad contact with the clamp, yoke, piston? (maggot color in the diagram)
    2. ATE bremszylinder - for lubricating the yoke pins and the brake cylinder (blue in the diagram)

    1. Should I use number one agent to lubricate all contact surfaces of blocks with other elements? ("clamps" of the caliper, whole yoke inside or only at the ends, rear part of the block from the piston side?)
    2. How do you lubricate the cylinder with agent number 2? just what is sticking out or do I have to push it out and how much?

    Are these plaques near the blocks also lubricated?

    Gently grease the pads with copper grease and wipe off excess grease to a rag. Flush the piston with the seal with silicone or WD40 grease in the spray. Lubricate the bushes with ŁT4 bearing grease.

    Seriously? Such spreads will withstand clamp temperatures during operation? Do not lubricate this piston? Will it not be too dry after WD40? I thought about wiping the piston with brake fluid and then lubricating with ATE bremszylinder ....

    I smeared everything according to art with Ate plastitube and bremszylinder and the brakes have been running smoothly for several months, nothing has burnt or contained. So I recommend these measures, especially as they are very efficient.

    After one year of use, the caliper lubricated in this way:
    ATE Plastilube Corolla E12 - brakes - caliper lubrication with what and where
    on the elements:
    Corolla E12 - brakes - caliper lubrication with what and where
    ATE Bremszylinder Corolla E12 - brakes - caliper lubrication with what and where
    on the elements:

    I find that the calipers work properly, nothing has seized up, the blocks are worn evenly and they do not make any disturbing sounds.
    In addition, no mechanic will do that ...
