You don't need to remove calipers to replace pads. Remove bottom bolt and just loosen top bolt. Then pivot out of the way.
Thank you for this helpful tip! Best regards.
Only amateur weekend wannabes will take all the bolts out.
You dont need to loosen the bleeder screw. Just take cap off of brake fluid reservoir and push the caliper piston back in.
Thanks for the feedback. Totally agree. That would be a cleaner way of doing it.
This also won't introduce air into the system. Air in the system needs to be bled out as it can be compressed unlike brake fluid. If you've cracked open the bleeder, do a proper brake flush, at least enough to get the air out.
Great Tutorial Good Job can’t wait for ur next one :)
You may want to check the slider pins and grease them if needed.
Apply grease to the medal contacts (caliber to brake pads) to reduce noise.
Great advice! Thanks!
No grease ?
Nice video, very informative and straight forward. Except I'm wondering why the bleed valve? Won't the fluid just go back to the reservoir when you compress the piston? The bleed valve mess just seems so primative and not necessary, perhaps?
All he needed5o do was remove the reservoir lid off.all that there is not necessary
No need to bleed your brakes. You didn't put some lube on sliding pins and on your pads. Besides that good video
Great feedback. Thanks!
You can use the old pad instead of the piece of wood to push the piston back. As others have mentioned, put some silicone grease for the slider pins and little grease on the piston where it contacts the pads. I have to change the pads on my car also. How are your pads? Are they making any noise?
Thanks for the advice. The pads worked great. No issues.
not too mention i notice he curled the boot on the caliper piston a bit. and you can use a C clamp with the pad as the old way and just muscle it in. shouldnt need to bleed anything just push the fluid back.
Why not just use brake caliper remind tool they are cheap and you don't need to bleed brake fluid
You didn’t cut or replace rotors 🤔
Dont forget to pump your brake pedal
Seen this "pump break pedal" comment often, but why is that
@@aaabbb-py5xd Once you push the caliper piston back in you wont have any brakes to stop the car. Thats why you pump the pedal til it gets firm before driving
@@thetexaschainsaw9366 thanks very much, but if I just start driving and apply brakes as needed, wouldn't that also firm up the brakes? Or is the danger that components may come loose or fall apart long before I ever need to brake
@@aaabbb-py5xd You wont have any brakes at all for the first 2 or 3 stops and thats very dangerous. Thats why you pump the brake pedal til it gets firm
@@thetexaschainsaw9366 I see, thanks again
Boss up
Thanks!
Sorry, man, but you made a LOT of mistakes!
Those Wagner pads came with a small packet of grease, that is intended to be lightly smeared between the pad and the shim.
Then, use brake grease on all the metal to metal contact points, especially on the fitment kit and the caliper ring and horns.
Don't bleed the fluid out! Now that you have bled the fluid out, you have a low amount of brake fluid. Fluid is to be FULL when the brakes are new and will be near "Min" when the pads are worn. So you now have the fluid below Max with new pads, and will have a level below Min when the pads wear.
Not at least checking the rotors for thickness and runout is "iffy". Def should re-surface or replace them or you are just shortening the life of the pads and will soon get some warping.
AND: REMIND PEOPLE TO PUMP THE BRAKES UNTIL FIRM, or they WILL have no brakes when they start the car!
I appreciate the helpful information! Thank you!
