For anyone watching.. those pointy edges/tabs that stick out from the top brake hardware clip should be tucked into the loop on the brake wear indicators. If not, that outer edge can scratch the inside of the rim and make noise. They also serve as return springs to keep the pads off the rotor when not braking, and I think they stabilize the pad and minimize shaking. Forgot to do this on mine and had nonstop loud squealing during braking and pads wore out in only 4 months!!!!!! (Rotors were also glazed). Hope this helps someone!
GOOD CATCH! Those pointy edges/tabs must be tucked into the loop. I appreciate the good intensions in making the video but really, Thank you Ken for spotting this major issue. We all learn.
This video is beyond helpful thank you so much for going into details and taking the time to record!
Doing my 2010 today. Thanks for taking the time to share your technique.
Thanks for keeping it simple!
You're welcome
I love that you compressed that with a screwdriver 👍 definitely one less tool needed

You are spot on for the everyday shade tree guy
Great 👍 job man. Great & precise explanation bro. 👍👍👍
Is there a way to grease the caliper pins since they don’t come out
Thanks for fixing these!
No prob!
Thanks well explained
How do you know it’s completely compressed
The caliper that is
Are you sure your car is 2010? I think you are doing back brakes
Back brakes you have to remove the caliper bracket also just to pull the caliper .dumb design
