@ChrisFix I want to say so much more, but after my dad passed away last year I lost my rock for everything automotive related. I knew basics, but having my dad to rely upon when I wanted to work on a vehicle just gave me so much peace. A few months ago I donated a kidney to a friend and have been out of work for awhile. Things started happening to my vehicles and I didn't want to lose money to a mechanic. I was still dealing with not being able to pick up the phone and call my dad for help, so I turned to your channel. I needed to fix a tie rod and my brakes. Your videos gave me so much help, and most importantly....peace of mind, to fix the problems on my own. I may not have my dad any more to call upon, but thank you for your videos because rest assured that I am not the only one missing their dad when help is needed and you have filled that void 💯

Very true. It also helps mechanics refresh things and confirm the proper way. There is the right way, fast way, and wrong way to do things. Yet the secret to mechanics. The fast way is the wrong way. This video can also help you prove that if you take your car to a shop. Then get home. You can check to see if they in fact worked on your car and did it "Right". I personally wouldn't Want to work a mechanic job and be told to do it wrong.

I watched this video several times, and thanks to this was not really surprised by anything I encountered. Keep the good, work up, I think I just got inpired to undertake more work on my car.

I retired in 2006 so I have to stay on top of anything new like the no-fill transmissions (which you have already covered in another video) if I want to continue doing my own repairs! Thank you for an awesome channel, keep up the good work!

Hey Chris. I've been watching you and your car repair video for years and I'm happy to report that I've recently replaced the brakes and rotors on my '09 Honda Fit, following your video. This is my third vehicle and with each DIY project I do, my car becomes less intimidating and I feel more confident about trying my own car repairs. I grew up with my mother and sister and my father wasn't in my life to teach me about this stuff (and he's a car guy). Now I'm married with 3 kids of my own and I hope to be able to pass down what I'm learning about cars to them as well. Starting with how to change your Blinker Fluid. 😉 Just wanted to say thanks.

Hey Chris, I just replaced my front brake rotors and pads. Also needed to pull apart one of the calipers to restore the pistons and seals. Followed it up with a brake fluid bleed and change, and an oil and oil filter change. Thanks to your videos, none of this was a hassle, the only hard part was breaking those bolts holding on to brake calipers! The money I saved was more than enough to buy a beautiful set of tools and still come out in front. Better than the saving of money was the satisfaction that I could accomplish something most people would not dare to attempt. I even had a five year old helping out with handing me tools, pumping the brake pedal during the brake bleed, and learning how brakes work along the way. I can’t express enough how appreciative I am that you generously share your knowledge and confidence in your videos. Cheers!

Before resetting the caliper piston, take off the cap to the brake fluid reservoir to ease the resistance of the pressure in the brake lines. You can pop a brake line with little added pressure and makes resetting the piston much easier.

My dad can fix basically everything. Thing is he doesn't want to learn me for some reason. It's so fucking annoying when he offers to repair something for me, then I ask him to only fix it when I'm around because I can learn a thing or 2 from it. Then I used to come back from school or whatever and he fixed it alone. Now I'm starting my masters in mechanical engineering in 1 year with just enough knowledge to change a lightbulb. The thing is, he said his father wasn't handy and therefore had to do everything himself. I kinda feel like he wants me to learn everything myself instead of him teaching me because that's the way he learned it. Can't blame the old fella. Still have a 1982 rusty Honda cm450. When I finish my engineering masters I want to make a café racer from it. Yes I wrote this novel to postpone studying.

I almost never comment on KZfaq videos, but really felt the need to do so here. This video saved me roughly $1000. Dealership told me I needed all new pads and rotors and quoted $1100, and in addition there was a stripped wheel stud which is apparently an additional $400 in labor, bringing the dealership total to almost $1500. I bought all new rotors and pads, a floor jack, replacement wheel studs, and a caliper tool for around $500 total. The best part is now I know how to do it for my wife's car, which will probably be close to another $1000 saved. You have a unique set of technical skills coupled with great presentation abilities. Please never stop doing what you're doing!

I can't thank you enough @ChrisFix I've never attempted fixing anything on my car besides changing the windscreen wipers. But yesterday I changed my rear brake pads!! I was told a while ago they needed replacing, at a cost of $700 - $800. After watching this vid (many many times) I was determined to try it myself. I'll be honest, I was totally nervous but your pep talk directed to newbies at the start of this video became my mantra. All up the brake pads were $62 and after buying everything else I needed my total cost was about $130. I now have enough anti-seize to last me a life-time and the confidence to also do my front brakes too. Thanks again Chris, all the way from Australia :)
