How do you remove the front rotors on a 2007 Acura TL?
Hello, Removing the front rotors on an Acura TL is clockwork. Here is a quick how-to guide: 1. Raise and safely support the vehicle. 2. Remove the front wheels. 3. Remove the brake hose mounting bracket. 4. Remove the brake caliper bracket mounting bolts, and remove the caliper assembly from the knuckle. 5. Remove the rotor retaining screws. 6. Remove the brake rotor by pulling it straight off the wheel mounting studs or if seized in place, remove the stubborn brake rotor by threading in two 8 x 1.25mm bolts, two turns at a time until the brake rotor is released. Good luck with your brake job!

it needs to be taken apart and cleaned if possible if not you have to replace the entire caliper it is most likely seized in rust

In most cases, no, however if you are having issues getting the piston into the caliper, it may be seized, or it may be a turn in caliper.

How can you tell if your front brake Caliper is frozen?
"Whichever caliper is frozen, I take it you mean seized, then the steering will pull in the opposite direction, so if the drivers side front caliper is seized, the steering will pull to the left, that is the passenger side front." The answer above is not necessarelly true. I've seen many seized calipers which don't pull the car to one side or the other. The EASIEST WAY to tell if your caliper is seized is by jacking up the car , put it in neutral andwhen the wheel is on the air and start turning it by hand. If the wheel turns easily then the caliper is probabbly not seized, if it's hard tu turn then the calipers are most likely seized. I suppose then to prove the case above using as simple a method as possible is to select a road without traffic flow, then using a brake hose clamp, clamp off one of the front hoses to prevent hydraulic pressure reaching the caliper, by this method one will know the brake cannot work, then drive the car at a reaonable speed in a straight line, holding the steering wheel with both hands and then firmly apply the brake pedal. The steering wheel will turn on the opposite direction, try it and then we can conclude the issue. my 1993 Chevy p/u 4.3engine driver side caliper is seized i removed the tire and found that the brake pads were worn down to almost the riviets.

Why brake pads wearing out on one side of car quicker?
You need to check for caliper slide.....if the caliper does not slide evenly, the wear will be uneven. If your slide bolts are gummed up, rusty or seized, you will get uneven brake wear.
