man. the first video that discusses the parking break issue. I couldn't figure out for the life of me why the rotor was loose. But my parking break has always needed adjusting but after the rotors i put on, my parking break was near null on any downhill grade. Thank you

This video is a help. With that said it may not 100% match your vehicle. Completed a rear brake pads fix in an afternoon after industrial engineering work. Saved myself $300 from what was quoted at the shop! Certainly it took several hours so the convenience factor is up to you what you think is a good/fun use of your time. Anyone who has the prior experience of having done 2 or more clutches should have no issue with doing this one! Parts and tools from Walmart and Autozone did the job. By the way with the experience of having done CV joints, battery fixes, radiator fixes, a head gasket replacement, and a timing belt, my experience may not be universal! Done lots of automotive stuff, so may be a lot more practiced than most everyone except actual automotive mechanics

I would've loved the video if the camera man would've focused on the actual items that the worker was describing. It's very informative, but being able to actually watch the mechanism being described and the procedurre at the same time instead of being just below or above the process would really have been more helpful. The camera skills need to be refined. All in all thanks for taking the time to tape and post this for a money saving deal. I really appreciate it.

I replaced the pads and rotors on my 2010 is250 and over 20mph it sounds like a bicycle chain when ever I step on the brakes, the rears, seems like the hardware kit they came with aren't stiff enough and the 2 bolts are just rattling when I hit the brakes no matter how much pressure.... any input?

Jose Leon sounds like the rotors and warped. I hove gotten bad ones right out of the box. You can send them back and get a fresh pair.

Carlos HERNANDEZ That’s the caliper slide pin bolt. Without seeing it in front of me it’s hard to tell if you can drill it out or you have to replace the whole part.

the little metal pin was not in place for some reason, I bent it and put it back in and will have to see if it stays or I need to order new set with brake pads.

If I only need to replace the rear driver side brake pads, would it be ok to lift/jack only the rear driver side of the car or should the car be equally leveled? Will this effect compressing the piston cylinder and the brake fluid process to the master cylinder?

@gparton85 Жыл бұрын

i was taught to never replace 1 pad at a time. You will be placing excessive uneven wear by replacing 1 at a time. You always replace both driver and passenger side pads

You need to get somebody to hold the camera for you, that way you don't have to try to use one hand and the angles will be better, other than that great video!

I read that forcing the caliper piston back, without opening the bleed screw, can possibly damage the brake proportioner's internal valves. Is that a potential problem?
