Re: My 09 si
Any of the calipers upside down? Air in the abs system maybe?

hahaha, had that happen to me once. I asked the parts guy which caliper was the drivers side. He found an L on one and said that's for the left side.

...turns out the L has nothing to do with position. Only took me 2 hours to figure out/bleed/reinstall.
