Thanks for the torque specs and great video. I've done this before but lost the specs. smh also thanks about where the rubber should go that one threw my mind out because when I removed them my first time didn't know there was a difference in the pins. 😂

I discovered open the bleeder valve when compressing the piston back in, this prevents and damage to the abs Just open it until you see fluid and then compress the piston, close the valve once it’s tight. After wards you will need to add fluid to the reservoir. Do not open the cap until you are done with the job and have started the car and pumped the brakes, move and make sure they work, then open the cap and top off 👍👍

i might add if your rubber sleeve is bad or swollen and won't go back into the caliper it is just a anti rattle part and if the local part stores dont have them in stock, which most stores wont ,they are not a safety issue to not put them back in in order to finish your brake job

I just replaced my brakes. After replacing the rear brakes the parking brake doesn't have enough tension anymore to lock the rear brakes. Did I miss a step or do I just need to adjust the shoes out a little? IF so, do I turn the adjust up or down? THanks for the great tutorial. I now have the brakes replaced and the transmission fluid/filters replaced. 216K miles on my 2015 and it's running nice and smooth. Hope to get another 100K out of it.

@@TheOriginalBeeCeeYes, I replaced the Rotors. I guess I assumed they would be the drum would have the same dimensions as the original Drum. I guess I just need to loosen the calipers so the rotor spins freely and adjust the shoes until the drum holds and back off a little from there. By the way, do you have or have you thought of doing a radiator flush on the Altima? I'd love to see that.

@@briananderson7497 yea, you might need to adjust them accordingly. Also, if you haven’t ensure the inner rotor is super clean. They put oil on new rotors for shelf longevity, so ensure its all gone because that definitely wouldn’t help either. But i plan to do one in the near future, ive had quite a few people ask me about doing one!

Should you open the break fluid reservoir?
@TheOriginalBeeCee
@TheOriginalBeeCee 10 ай бұрын
You can if it makes you feel better, but most definitely don’t have to, and I don’t. In fact, all the FSM recommends is siphoning (turkey baster) some fluid out of reservoir, to prevent it overflowing from compressing. Same recommendation from Haynes manuals, etc. I actually don’t even do that though. What i’ve been doing for a little while that I really like is after I’m done each corner, go back in car and pump brakes a few times….and build the pedal back up stiff to get all the fluid basically back in the corner. Haven’t had any fluid overflow yet or anything utilizing this method. And i could be crazy, but I think it helps to really have an even better nice solid stiff pedal when the job is done.

Whats up man. A little late but yes, that’s how I do all my brake jobs now. Works great. As for messing with the fluid, its a very opinionated subject. A lot of people/service guides etc will day 30-60k swap it, ive seen people recommend 100k, etc. personally as long as its functioning as it should & not dark/dirty looking, i leave it alone. I don’t do it to often.

@TheOriginalBeeCee
@TheOriginalBeeCee Жыл бұрын
Thats hard to say man, very subjective question. Depends on use, prior maintenance, etc. some need to be changed at 30k miles, some could make it to 100k+. Just depends on their condition. Rotors should be flat and smooth, there shouldn’t be a lip on the edge of them, nor any grooving on unevenness on the face of the rotor. So its really just a matter of their condition via visual inspection vs. an actually mileage.

Why would the rear pads wear unevenly?
@TheOriginalBeeCee
@TheOriginalBeeCee Жыл бұрын
Could be a combination of different things, but more than likely either the replacement was prolonged and the brakes should have been done earlier, and/or the caliper is seizing. Rear calipers are good for freezing up and seizing, that would be noticeable once the caliper was taken off and the piston was attempted to be retracted. Would be really stiff, and/or not retract at all.

@@alliewilcox8622 very interesting. Weird that its only doing it on braking after an impact. I would take the wheel off and visibly inspect everything very closely if you haven’t already. Check the wheel hub/bearing for tightness too, the wheel should be super stiff and have no play if you grab it at 9 & 3 and rock it. If nothing jumps out, maybe have the alignment and/or wheel checked. Wheel could be slightly bent, and if a suspension component is bent for example a good alignment shop should be able to identify it.
