Great video. Been a while since I had to replace pads and I wanted to also make sure there was nothing unexpected. Love that you laid out all the socket sizes too. Thank you!
When i changed our camrys pads and rotors, when i pressed the caliper in i loosened the bleeder valve to keep air pockets from happening in the brake lines.Is that not necessary here? I cant imagine how itd be different?
If the bleeder valves are not opened and there is no air in the lines to begin with then you shouldn’t need to do this, but some people like to bleed out some of the brake fluid incase they did have air in the lines.
Typically in the dealerships I’ve worked in, we don’t open the bleeder unless we’re bleeding the brake fluid, the reason for this is because many many times the bleeder can snap off if it hasn’t been touched in many years, which ends up being an even bigger issue. I’ve never had any problems just pressing the caliper piston back in. But if you do that and feel a spongy brake pedal then that means there’s air in the lines and you should then bleed the brakes. If you do bleed the brakes, then I always start from the furthest caliper away from the fluid reservoir, and work my way closer, so it would Right Rear, then Left Rear, then Right Front, then Left Front.

@@briangeorge8321 Glad to hear this helped! Thanks for your support!
Very nice, professional job and clear explanations. Thanks
Thanks for your support!
Excellent step by step.
Changed the pads and rotors on my 2018 and couldn't believe how quick and easy it was.
did you do front and rear or only front?
I have another video showing the rear as well.
Amazing step by step video. Thanks Vinnie!
Like the way it was explained very well Also talking about the toools needed
Great video! I was quoted $330 to replace the front pads. I’m going to save myself close to $300
Glad to hear this helped! Thanks for your support!
Awesome video, thank you! I really like saving labor on a brake job, and you made it happen for me!
Happy to hear this helped, thanks for your support!

"Torque these bolts to 29ft lbs..." and proceeds to tighten them down with an impact. Nice!

@@VinnieT i could be wrong but when you push the caliper piston back in can it not cause air pockets if you dont open the valve?

I don't mean to be rude, you need tires, more than brakes!
100% agreed lol, the owners tires had the belts showing. I sent them right to the shop for new tires after this video haha
