I get over 80k miles on my Lexus RX330 pads and rotors which cost me about $600. Going to replace them with POWERSTOP Z36 which cost me about $400. Fingers crossed I get at least 80k miles on them... hoping for 100k!!!

I have more time then money so I do my own brakes. I'm slow, takes me a long time so a professional is more efficient. But for 250 dollars in parts, I can use premiums Akebono parts and do both axles vs 700 dollars if I paid a pro. But........ if I had the money I would pay a pro to save time.

good stuff, I wonder why you stopped making videos

What is the brand of the high carbon rotor? Am looking at doing the wife's car and looking at the higher end parts for the job. PowerStop has my attention as of this writing.

I do my own repairs, brakes especially. Hard part is finding good quality parts today, so much.of it is absolutely garbage.

A big NO on required government inspections!

Chris,i am in illinois if i come to NJ i will visit you Thanks for information I am oem person but on my son 2004 odyssey i want to use moog or dorman control arms what do you think ? Make a viedeo when people can use non oem parts .for brakes i use oem

The reson they fell off is, the owner not getting there car serviced on time. No make/ part will last forever.

i hope your customers appreciate having you as their technician!

A brake job is fairly easy with basic tools. The exception is on the rear brakes for some cars requires the ODBII computer hookup to retract the parking brake portion of the caliper. VW/Audi are good examples of this.

What is the name of this line you replaced So far i have changed the purge and canister valve in the engine and under the chasis

We’re not seeking knockoffs, just honest Mechanics, Thanks

You people need to move to Chicago !!!

Clear, to the point, honest, Thank you !

Can I upgrade Calipers with bigger pads and larger rotor ?

Good job! I was wondering which models and brand can you suggest me for a 2003 Ford E-450 Super duty Dually Box Truck heavy loaded all the time? (inside is an office and a lot of ocmputers rackmounted

To much grease for nothing.....you should put purple grease only where the caliper hit the brake pad....

This video popped up when I searched for a way to diagnose an Equinox without a scanner. Can that be done?

Great video! Where does one buy these high-carbon quality rotors for a DIY person?

What is an example of a high-carbon rotor?

Does it matter the whither they’re high carbon alloy or high carbon cast iron I’ve seen both being sold, also I found duralast high carbon rotors but they’re only $118 are they legit high carbon rotors? They’re not much more expensive at all. Just making sure I’m buying the best I can

What type of spray did you use on caliper bracket? Where do you get the carbon rotors? We need shops like yours in our area.

my Hyundia must use oem white box rotors they all have heavy rust like the picture.lol

Learned a lot fromthis video. Very detailed. Thanks so much!

hi, just curious what brand of brake rotors do you recommend in 2024?

Please move to Hawaii and open up More Summer less Winter Auto Repair. I'll be your first customer and will bring in many more!

Great video and appreciate great mechanics. Curious what did you use to coat the used caliper? Rust inhibitor?

Mine was rusted out just like that one. Thanks for the GREAT video!!!

presume that's an aftermarket spring (yellow?) Are the shocks and struts dead and everything was being absorbed by the springs and rest of the body?

90k on front brakes your smoking crack

u should not that purple Ceramic lube for that part only use Silicone lube for that part

I put syl-glide on 1 pin, purple goo on the other. When they came back for another set of brakes in 50,000 miles, I stopped using purple on the pins. It was always dried out compared to the syl-glide.

NEW rotors need to be cut to match the hub. This is what the factory does. And the Toyota dealership.

Its 2024 and this is by far the best brake and rotor service i have ever seen. From the high quality rotors to the sanded and painted calipers, you stand out from alot of shops. I am from upstate NY and it would definitely be worth the 7 hour drive to have you work on my vehicle.

I might have missed him saying what brand of pads he is using. But I use Akebono because that's what Scotty recommends.

Did you just say $450 for a 4 wheel disk brake full brake, replace all 4 rotor brake job, painted calipers, new hardware, purple grease? I'm in. This is a steal!!!

AKEBONO brake pad are the best. Japanese, made in USA ! I prefer brembo rotors

This video i think shows the right way to do business. thank you for the information.

Upon getting a brake job quote from Kia I had asked if the new replacement rotors were OEM, they said no. They typically just purchase rotors from AutoZone. Of course, I don't know how much better Kia's OEM rotors are compared to AutoZone's, probably not much, it was just surprising to me. Not to mention their job would have been almost $300 more than going to a local brake shop who's more concerned with using quality parts and charging a more reasonable price.

"Nobody turns brake rotors anymore..." Thats completely not true, at least in Texas as alot of people still do it. But we dont get the rust down here like yall do.

I am a woman and unfortunately I have been cheated by more than one mechanic in my life. I really liked your video, it was clear and specific. I am very grateful that you showed exactly what the equinox 2012 chassis looks like and how to locate a small leak using a smoke machine and an estimated repair cost . I changed the gas cap and now, after watching your video, I know what I should hear from the mechanic I'll go to. Thanks to you, I will be well prepared. Thank you very, very much.

Unacceptable

Purple grease 😱🤦‍♂️

2:30 diese Bremsscheibe ist aber schon sehr lange sehr tot .😁

I had a bent rotor😮

Funny, my 99 Dakota 4x4 front brakes lasted 188,000 km, the back even longer?

Plus $1000 for a brake job is daylight robbery!! Learn to do this yourself

Bullsh#t! Brakes do not vibrate once changed. You shouldn't be able to feel any vibration at all

Wow who ever did this needs shut down....as a tech I can say 100% this is not what happens in a real brake job from a real shop...

All this stems from people having no idea how to work on their vehicle. You dont have to be a master mechanic but for as much as we humans rely on cars the majority of us have no idea how they work.
