Glad it was helpful. Thanks for watching!

It’s definitely something you could do yourself if you wanted! Thanks for watching!

Glad I could help. Thanks for watching!

Awesome, glad to hear it was helpful! Thanks for watching.

OK but a set of couple of JIS bits cost around $60. Cost not justified.

@@Emry11 depends what part of the plant you live in, on Amazon $18 for a set of 4.

@@romans5680 Live on planet apes but found a set for $18 and got them.

@@Emry11 😂

I used a impact and striped it out

That’s overkill if your replacing the rotor. Using a dead blow hammer will do nothing to the rotor or hub.

Thanks for watching. Good luck on your brake job!

have the rotor replaced or resurfaced.

Awesome, glad the video helped. The rear brakes would follow the same principle, though you will also have the parking brake.

@@ScrufsGarage I don't recall I had to push back any piston for the rear pads replacement.

Yea, you're definitely not alone; it seems to be a fairly common issue with Honda/Acura's. So far I'm very pleased with these rotors, though I've only got a couple thousand miles on them so far. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for watching!

Just a Honda Accord Yes it did get rid of the sequel. Though that was more a function of different pad shims than the pads themselves. Overall I’m happy with this setup but it does moan under hard braking. But they stop really well, especially once you get some heat in them.

Hopefully this vehicle won't need the front hubs replaced for many more years, haha! But if/when they need to get replaced, I'll definitely make a video of the process.

My calipers don't have that Acura emblem on it.

For max safety I recommend using a stand under the front axle itself.

Yes. Mine is an old GoPro Hero3+ I believe. It uses wifi to pair with my phone. Since the camera doesn't have a screen on the back, I can use the GoPro app on my phone to line up shots, plus start/stop recording. It works fairly well but running the camera wifi eats batteries very fast. I've thought about getting a new GoPro with the screen on the back, but I'm cheap, haha.

@@ScrufsGarage Thanks man! It's probably not worth it to throw extra money for a new GoPro with the screen on the back. The idea caught my attention is that your phone is a LIVE VIEW MONITOR when you were recording yourself. So, you can make sure that everything you want to show is within the scope. It's pretty brilliant already, isn't it? LOL...

@@ScrufsGarage Even the new ones eat the battery very quick. This is flaw that I don't know why GoPro doesn't address it.

The Powerstop kit I got included a packet of brake caliper grease, so that's what I used. But if you don't have that, you can get brake caliper grease at any parts store. A lot of times they sell small packets at the register.

@@ScrufsGarage I just ordered the same set you ordered, I hope it will last a few years Thanks again for the video and for your answer

The brake kit is installed today, Powerstop Z23 is good quality. I'll hope it lasts 3 years, I drive a maximum of 8000 miles/year

Yes, happy to report the noise when turning did not come back.

@@ScrufsGarage Great! I'm going to have mine replaced. Thanks very much!

Yes. They are wearing very well. No change in performance... when they are cold they need a little more pedal pressure. Once they are warm, they bite very well. And under heavy braking they have a bit of a moan noise, which might be a byproduct of the drilled rotors. No complaints though.

Hmm, there can be a variety of things that can cause a noise. Did you do a bedding procedure for the new pads and rotors? You might also check and make sure the brake pad clips are properly installed, and that the pads can slide smoothly. Any indication a caliper piston could be sticking? (sometimes if you see abnormal wear on the old pads, it can indicate a caliper piston sticking). And sometimes the noise may just be the nature of the brand of pads/rotors. For example, with the pads/rotors I used in this video, I get a slight brake moan under hard braking at lower speeds. Nothing is wrong, and they stop really well. Just the nature of the pads and rotors. Sorry I can't help more, but hopefully that gives you a few ideas to check.

They’ve held up very well. No complaints.

I installed the same Powerstop Brakes( slotted and cross drilled) on my 2014 RDX and they e been excellent and haven't worn too much over these last couple years. Remember to follow the manufacturer's break-in protocol. This properly seats the brake pads and rotors together.

Very little brake dust. Pads seem to work best once they have a little heat in them. Rotors holding up well. Coating on the friction surface is removed the first time you apply the brakes. So the friction surface is bare steel, which will flash rust after washing or rain like any rotor. Not a big issue though.

@@ScrufsGarage All rotors rust since they are plain cast iron. The coated ones may last a bit longer but even they will rust eventually. That's why I don't spend the extra on the coated ones.

Aaron Andino Holding up great so far. They need just a bit of heat in them to really bite well. Under hard braking they have a slight moan but nothing too bad. No squealing tho. So far very happy with them.

@@ScrufsGarage These ceramic pads are not suitable for upper states with cold climate. They don't work well in cold.

Yes, links are in the episode notes. 👍

If this is a continuous problem try replacing the rubber brake line. Why? Sometimes mechanics use brake line compression tools to seal off the line from draining fluids during brake jobs, and it can crimp the line preventing a full release of your brakes upon application . This was the case in my brother's truck. Just a thought :)

You need to get your parking brakes inspected and make sure they are not sticking to the rotors. To prevent this you need to use the P-Brakes on a regular basis for them not get crystalized.

No, I believe the brake rotors fit from 2013-2018 RDX. So it would be a different part number for a 2010 RDX.

@@ScrufsGarage thank you
