These step-by-step instructions and video detail a brake job on a 2008 Honda Civic Si, and will be similar to replacement procedures on your 2006, 2007, 2009 2010, and 2011 Honda Civic Si. The repair procedures will also be similar for select Honda CR-V models from 2005 and 2006, as well as 2008 Honda Civic MUGEN Si models equipped with an L4 engine. Removing and replacing worn brake pads and rotors helps you maintain a safe, functioning braking system, and can help you avoid an accident in your Honda Civic. If you hear grinding or squealing noises when the brakes are applied, or feel pulsing or shaking when braking, you should replace both the brake pads and brake rotors for a full repair.

Your Honda Civic Si’s brake pads and rotors are key parts of the braking system that help slow down your vehicle when the brakes are applied. The brake pads clamp against the rotors, slowing the spinning wheels on your Honda. If you hear squealing or grinding sounds when applying the brakes, or if you feel pulsing or vibrations in the brake pedal, you likely need a brake pad and rotor replacement. It’s recommended to replace brake pads and rotors at the same time, since they are likely the same age and will begin to fail at the same time. Failed or failing brake pads or rotors can create issues with the braking abilities and handling of your Civic, which could put you and others in danger. These step-by-step instructions can help you perform a brake rotor and brake pad replacement on your 2006-2011 Honda Civic Si to help you brake safely.

Park on a level surface.
Loosen the lug nuts on the front wheels with a 19mm socket.
Jack up the front end and put it on stands.
Remove the lug nuts… and take off the wheels.
Turning the steering wheel can help you access the caliper you’re working on a little more easily.
Secure the bottom caliper pin with a 19mm wrench… and remove the bolt with a 12mm socket, being careful not to damage the pin boot.
Use the same wrench and socket to remove the top bolt as well.
Once these bolts are removed, pull the caliper from the rotor… and use your caliper hanger to suspend the caliper and keep pressure off the brake line.
Take the brake pads out of the bracket []… and use a 17mm socket to remove the caliper bracket bolts.
Now, you should be able to remove the caliper bracket. With the bracket out of the way, the rotor can now be removed.
The rotor is likely held in place by two screws that may be difficult to remove, so spray them with rust penetrant first.
Using an impact screwdriver to remove the screws makes this a little easier as well. Once you’ve removed the screws, the rotor can be pulled off the hub. Use brake cleaner and a rag or shop towel to wipe down the friction surface of your new rotor.
Brake cleaner will strip paint, so be careful to keep it away from any painted surface when you spray it.
