Pontiac Vibe Wheel Cylinder
The Wheel Cylinder of Pontiac Vibe is used to apply pressure on the brake shoes so they can press on the brake drum and significantly reduce the speed of the car or even bringing it to a stop. This hydraulic system has the piston and rubber seal present in the cylinder which moves out in the event that brake pressure is applied in order to force the shoes into the drum. Wheel cylinder is usually made from aluminum to avoid rusting and this part can either be replaced or rebuked if leakage is prompting the cylinder. Inspection and maintenance of the wheel cylinder is highly recommended to enhance the performance of the brake system and to avoid cases of bad Roads/accidents.

The flare-nut wrench could be used to undo the Brake Line if present. Refrain from pulling the brake line away from the cylinder. There are two wheel cylinder mounting bolts that will have to be removed. Take out wheel cylinder away from brake backing plate and locate it onto a clean workbench. In order to avoid loss of fluid and contamination, do not forget to plug immediately another end of the pipe, connected with its free side via a union nut.
