Cleaning the front brakes of my Maruti XL6

I didn't feel the need to lubricate the sliding pins as they felt pretty smooth.

Front brakes cleaning

There was a minor squeal from the brakes and I found a small debris stuck between the pads and disc, took this opportunity to clean the brakes as I was not entirely satisfied with the way it was done during the last service. Didn't feel the need to lubricate the sliding pins as they felt quite smooth and the Toyota grease seem to be doing its job well. Largely it was a cleaning exercise.

Some pics:

Found the bleeder cap missing on the RHS side, was replaced

Pads had decent life at 34k on the Odo:

The clips were comprehensively cleaned:
