I just did this job on both my back wheels for the first time doing work on my car using nothing but this video and it came out great. Saved me $1500 after parts from what the dealership quoted me. Thanks!
I have never seen a better video than this. So well explained and everything gets shown and explained! I'm just a novice at working on my car but this video made it seem simple to do!
I have a 2009 vibe. I slid the closed side of a 14 mm wrench around the multi point clip that holds the e brake on. I pinched it on with pliers . Squeezed with one side of pliers on the wrench and the other side against the mount . Came right off
One of the most important steps is not mentioned at all in the video, it is extremely important to monitor your brake fluid reservoir while bleeding brakes, especially with a new caliper. If your reservoir gets depleted you'll just pump a ton of air into your brake lines which is a major pain to remedy. I would hazard a guess that the reservoir needed to be topped off at least a couple of times to fill that new caliper with brake fluid. It's also easier, and cleaner, to check to see if you've gotten all the air out if you put a clear hose over the bleeder nipple while your bleeding.
If you don't have the tool to remove the e-brake, there is a hack that will work. Take an OLD 13mm wrench, and cut a notch out of the closed end approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide with cut-off blade on an angle grinder . This will allow the wrench to slip over the cable, and to compress the tabs. Figured this out after fighting with the first caliper for 1/2 an hour.
i didnt see the tool listed for the caliper piston or the tool use to remove the ebrake, can u provide those to me as i have this job coming soon,,, thank you and awesome video :)
Wondering the same, and also I thought that a parking brake and an emergency brake are two different types or braking systems that are often confused and mistakenly relied upon? Now I’ve gotta call my uncle mechanic back and ask him to explain that one lmao
Thank you for this video. Good explanations and perfect length. Similar to the step at 5:40 when the parking brake cable is released through a notch, my 2010 Matrix doesn't have that notch. I can't find a video on how to compress 6 one-way catches which allow the cable to be installed easily by pushing it through a hole, but not so easy to remove. UPDATE...I released the parking brake cable tab using the closed end of a 14mm wrench...wiggling it back and forth over the tabs while pulling and eventually it cleared the hole in the fastening point.
How is your ebrake cable so easy to install or remove? The tensioner has tightened my cable so much I have no play in it. I need to release the tensioner to reset the cable length.
this guy is a great speaker and explains things simple and straight to the point. Very refreshing imo. Thank you... as i am changing my wife's car's rear caliper sometime this week. This gives me confidence and inspires me to do my best. Thank you for this vid!!! :)

I did not know how to depress the piston in on rear brakes until i warched your video. One video i watched said to turn the disk with pliers but not to depress it at the same time! I must have damaged the boot because now there is a tear in it! I am just going to replace both calipers now since one is damaged and i am having no luck depressing them on this 2014 VW jetta sportwagen! Is it possible to just replace the boot?
thanks for this, I am buying a new caliper for my ford focus,and I was a a little nerveious about putting back my hand brake cable but looking at this it looks like its a strait forward job,
No parking brake adjustment? I replaced my rear calipers (they looked exactly like the ones shown here) and there is slight play in the handbrake until the first click and the handbrake doesn’t fully lock the brakes hard anymore. I took off the brackets on the caliper that holds the spring and brake line to change the rubber and restored them so the spring is tight again. I’m not sure if it’s off slightly the spring is probably tighter than before or if it’s something else.
I have ONE QUESTION!!! If you just change one caliper due to its a bad caliper "can you just bleed that side" that you change and be done Or do you have to bleed all 4 wheels or the other back wheel?
Can u plz advise which grease is best for caliper sliding pins ? When I bought brake pads for my 2019 crysler Pacifica , they sent small packet of grease. I guess that is only to be used for brakes but not calipers .

I however have an issue this doesnt address, on my brake caliper for the e-brake cable, there is no groove, the cable passes through the body of the caliper totally, and the cable terminates in a nub that attaches to the sprung arm on the body. So, from the nub down, the cable then sits inside what looks like an aluminium sheath which in turn sits in what looks like a steel (corroded) place holder that sits in a hole in the body of the caliper with no groove to pop to the side. I'm abit stuck as on how to proceed. Thanks!!
Hi, I have a question, I was installing a remanufactured rear caliper on my car, and after hooking the brake line and the caliper bracket, I realized that the piston needed to be compressed a bit more to clear the new pads, while using the correct piston tool, it would not budge , not clockwise, nor counter clockwise, I will be returning the caliper to the shop, but I wonder , am I missing something? Could the piston be seized ??
Question i have a sonic rs and the rear caliper on driver side when applied the e-beake get stock , but if i dont use the emergencia brake the caliper works ok with pedal brake so do i have to replaced the whole caliper?
I have a 2016 chevy trax and my e-brake cable does not disconnect like your video shows. I had to remove a clip and then gave up because I didn't know what to do next.

Just pull harder and look for places you can get it out of the guides and keepers that route it along the frame. It'll eventually come out. That special tool really helps. It was 10 bucks well spent.
My rear piston won’t go back in while I’m replacing brake pads on jetta. 1. Do I need to have the e brake spring disconnected? 2.

I’ve always done my own work and this was the most helpful video to refresh my memory on a few things, but today I just can’t get any bolts off except my tire... I’ve never had a problem that I couldn’t figure out when it comes to mechanics and not being strong enough usually a long bar or something I’ll do and stand on it for leverage but not this time... I don’t know is it safe to spray like WD40 (or whatever like lubricant?idk I can have Napa deliver same day)on those to loosen em and try again tomorrow? What if it drips on the hoses or something or my rotor I’m replacing the calipers and pads but my rotor is okay I only drove about two hundred yards very slowly when I felt it lock up so the heat was minimal and no gouging or warping but the bracket for my (now obviously empty and useless) brake pad did fall off about 45 seconds before the obvious reaction of seizing up of the caliper 😭😭 my husband passed away a year and half ago someone help me how can I loosen the bolts holding my caliper on without damaging anything or myself?

when pumping the brakes, does the car need to be running?
no
Excellent Job Bearded Brother! I'll be sure to watch out for the flippy-do. Remember the flippy-do needs to go away from the caliper. :) No buggery mess for me. Thank You Sir!!!
This was so helpful! One question, if I only replace one caliper do I need to bleed the other side as well?
It's would be best to bleed all the calipers starting with the caliper furthest from the ABS module. It pays to to be through and consistent otherwise it might cost you your life or worse the lives of others
No as long as you dont run the master cylinder dry

If you get a piece of pipe and hold your brake pedal all the way to the floor it's in the floor you won't leak out any break Fluid
