[QUOTE="VAcracker, post: 1465102, member: 97951"] I’m glad you posted this about your brake pins giving you trouble. It made me proactively go check my 2016 and realized there seems to be a tendency for the brake pad pins and calipers to get some bimetal corrosion I would recommend everybody to not use a ball end Allen when loosening, but to use the standard straight Allen instead. I have proactively taken just a slight smear of anti-seize on the Q-tip and put it on the pen threads. Should fix the issue! Good luck with yours! [/QUOTE]
