Now that's how you make a video top marks I changed mine yesterday for the first time after watching this thanks for the post I wanna attempt rear brake shoes have you done a video of that 🤞
@@Sceme1991 yeah mate it was really helpful, I've told my brother to watch you because he wants to do his 👍 mine has drums aswell its a 2014 I'm not sure if mine need doing to be honest I just thought if the fronts are worn then the back will be the same maybe but I am not super confident will probably wait for you to do yours 😂👍 thanks for replying 👍
Hi, Why did you change the abs sensor? Was he failing? I have a Nissan Pathfinder (similar to Navara) and I have the ABS and ESP lights coming on on the dash. It's probably an abs sensor that needs to be changed, but which one? I have error code P1211. Thanks
I got ABS light on the dashboard and when I had the OBD codes read it indicated an faulty sensor on the driver side. Unfortunelately I don't remember which code it was. It's very likely the case with your Pathfinder aswell. Quite easy to replace.
@@Sceme1991 The code tells me a wiring fault. I think it's the connector that's dirty. I have to clean it when the temperatures are a little more favorable (I live in the mountains in France). Thanks for your feedback.
I'm about to change my brake pads too this weekend! Do we need to lubricant both the caliper bolts and the brake pads? Anything you recommend using if i'm doing my brake pads for the first time ? #australiafollower
Sorry I missed your question! I put copper paste on the outside of the pads because I've seen other people do that too but I doubt it's necessary. It's supposed to stop them from making noise. Lubing the glide pins however is important especially if they're seized because otherwise the pads wont center properly causing the brakes to drag, heat up and wear unevenly. Brake lube or silicone paste both should do the job.
What are the plugs/connectors called on the abs sensors mine will not unclipped no matter what I do, will most likely have to cut the plugs and rewire new plugs onto it.
Yeah. I'm not sure if it does anything but I've seen others do it aswell and since I had the stuff I thought why not. Just be careful to not get it on the front side of the pads or discs. Making sure the glide pins move freely is more important.
Very clear camera work! thanks..

I'm glad it was helpful! I haven't worked on the rear breaks yet but I'll probably make a video about it when I do. Mine has drum brakes on the rear.

Do you not need to bleed the lines as well?
He did not remove the pistons or loosened the break hoses. No need to bleed a system without air in it.
Excellent job. Did you want to paint those calipers?
Thanks! And no. It's a workhorse. Doesn't need to look pretty (although it does)
I'm about to change my brake pads too this weekend!

No idea what they're called. Really dificult to get them to separate sometimes. There's a clip you need to press up in order to release it
Do you remember if it was DB1835 pads that you used?
I'm sorry but I have no clue. These are just some generic ones the parts store sold me based on the make and model. Didn't buy these from Nissan.
Do you copper paste the back of both pads?
Yeah. I'm not sure if it does anything but I've seen others do it aswell and since I had the stuff I thought why not. Just be careful to not get it on the front side of the pads or discs. Making sure the glide pins move freely is more important.
Why change the sensor abs
It was faulty and I had the ABS light on my dashboard. Since I needed to replace it either way I decided to do the brakes while I'm at it
It do not makes sense doing all Dat work because the frame is so dirty and even the pistons rusty
Okay, what do you suggest then? Should've just scrapped the entire truck instead?
