Wierd one: tranny fluid smell on caliper bracket bolts? S70 99

posted by  someone claiming to be mike on  Mon Apr 16 12:05 CST 2001 [RELATED]



Just did all rotors and pads on my S70 GLT. When I removed the bolts holding the caliper bracket (the bracket the caliper mounts to) I noticed they were shiney/wet. For whatever reason, I decided to smell them and they smelled alot like burnt/old tranny fluid - at least that's the closest smell I could come up with.

Even more wierd - passenger side front and rear both had that and neither front nor rear driver's side did!
