Great job on this video. Great step by step explanations. Great, clear, video from different angles. Well done. Other people posting should use this video as a learning tool.
Great instructional video, concise and to the point with handy hints. Just did my CX5 pads and followed this to the letter. Many thanks, a new subscriber
Great vid, I will be doing brakes on my cx-5 soon and this will be my first time ever, I loved your vid, being watching brake vids the last few weeks to make sure I don't miss anything, and your videos are very well filmed and informative with the torque specs. Thanks for sharing! 👍👍👍
Thank you so much i really appreciate it🙂 i do hope my video helps makes everything go easy and smooth for u..i got a video for replacing brakes plus the rotor as well on the cx-5 also, if u end up having to replace the rotor...good luck on ur first brake job🙂
My Mazda has 111,111 miles on the front pads but I've done the rear twice. It takes more time to round up the tools, lube, quieter and cleaner than to do the work :(
I’m glad I do my own,you didn’t clean the brake dust and crud from the stainless steel tins that the pads fit in and you didn’t clean off the old grease on the slide pins before applying new grease.
I looked at other videos here and agree he did a good job explaining the procedure but he didn’t mention the procedure on how to apply the parking brake which puts the car in the service mode or how to release the parking brake which calibrates the parking brake. I still gave him a thumbs up…
Do you have a video of the rear brake. I have problems with the rear passenger brake. I think my calliper is sticking. replaced the rotor and pads 18 months ago. Having same problem again. Thanks, great video on the front brake.
yes i do but i havent been able to edit it as of yet, but i have a video of how to compress a caliper which should be helpful cause its the same type of caliper...ruclips.net/video/OTu8mBRa1Io/видео.html but i will have that other video completed later this week or early next week.
Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Can I ask a question about how often you replace the rear brake pads and rotors? My 2013 CX-5 needs to replace all brake pads and brake rotors- whatever the fronts and rears- almost per year. Is it normal?
Anytime🙂..the rears will last longer than the fronts..they almost last twice as long as the fronts..but depends on how much miles u put on the vehicle per year and also depends on the type of driving..freeway driving will wear out brakes less than city stop and go driving
I noticed that in your video about read pads replacement you are spinning the caliper to compress it. but here you are not. does that mean that the front and the rear on a 2013 CX-5 are different?
Thank you🙂 well it was a customers vehicle so they only wanted brake pads replaced..but i ended up changing em soon after, which i made a video on like a month later cause i told em the steering wheel shake when braking was due to an uneven brake rotor surface
Thank you for posting the video. I also watched your video for the rear pads and rotors, very helpful. I am changing the pads and rotors for the front; by any chance do you know the tightening torque for the front caliper bracket to the wheel when I remove my rotors?
holy fark, signature mazda stealership quoted me 500 for front and another 500 for back for my 2017 GT. I will be changing them out myself when the time comes.
Thanks for your video. Especially the lubricant part. My right rear squealed and had uneven wear on the inner pad. The fronts will have to wait till next year.
Hey backyard Chevy you say towards the end to tighten the screws to certain pounds. I think the caliper screws were 22? How is that measured? Can it be measured? It would be my first attempt at brake pad replacement and I want to do it right. Also is a resurface of the rotors necessary or not? Thanks!
Well that would be done using a torque wrench..if u get new brake pads, resurfacing the rotor gives u a fresh surface for the brake pads..so they work better..with better stopping grip..or u can replace the rotor if necessary
It looked to me like you had a lot of pad left, I think I would've waited. Do other people feel like that, or am I waiting too long. I helped my friend change his old Camry's pads last weekend, he had less than an 1/8th, I think that is a little excessive.
Well metallic brake pads would be the ones that wear out the rotors faster..ceramics are my favorite but they do put out a lot of brake dust...organics are good for daily driving if ur not gonna put em through heavy braking, but they will wear out faster than the rest
this is the second video i have watched and none have had to bleed the brakes.... its been a loooooong time since i have changed pads but dont you need to bleed anymore?
You dont have to bleed ur brakes unless u introduce air into the system, like if u change a brake hose or caliper if u do that then u gotta bleed brakes.
Cleaning pushpins and adding brake lubricant to em should be done...bleeding old brake fluid i dont do because it could introduce air into the system and could cause worse problems, i would rather bleed old brake fluid completely separately.
Thats for the rear brakes, since the 2016+ mazda's have electronic parking brakes..but the one i was doing had the manual parking brake and then also i was doing the fronts
@@backyardchevy328 i notived i have a small tear in my rubber piston boot. grease was slowly coming out when squeezed. Will this be a problem?should i replace that small rubber pin boot?
@@tonymaruca6776 yes, youll wanna replace it..because that holds in the grease and if theres no grease that pin can seize up and ur brakes will wear uneven and youll have to replace the whole caliper bracket if it gets that bad
Yea its almost the same except for the front rotor on this vehicle u got a threaded hole where u can use a bolt to pop rotor off the hub, and on the rears u gotta pop off with hammer blows.
Its the same procedure only difference is the brake pads will be a different part number and look a lil different and mazda 3's have a spring anti rattle clip that u gotta pop off using a screwdriver
No, thats how they are..the front fingers will grab onto the outer brake pad once the piston pushes out against the inner pad(after ur done replacing em and press the brake pedal), then itll firm up
No theres only 2 of the 4 brake pads that will have a warning clip and one brake pad with warning tab will go on drivers side and the other will be for passenger side
The brake pads I bought came with some additional hardware (anti rattle springs). I see you didn’t have something like that and only installed the warning clips. Now I’m wondering if it was absolutely necessary to install those springs cause they were a bitch to get the pads in.
Mine didnt come with em, but if it did come with em its good to replace em, i should of replaced em myself but i just ended up cleaning em and using the brake lubricant.
"A few knocks with a 4 lbs hammer, and it comes right off" Meanwhile... people up in the rust belt: "Anyone know if Barry Bonds could come over and use this 15 lbs sledgehammer on my rotors for a few hours to try to dislodge it?" In all seriousness, Mazda OEM rotors have a small hole that a M8 1.25 bolt can be screwed into to convert rotational force on the bolt to linear force to the hub to separate the rusted hub from the rotor.
Yea the hardware should be changed or at least cleaned...i changed the hardware next day when they came in..but yea i should of just waited to do video.
Looks do-able with the tools I have ... But I guess iam one of those people who would probably pay a pro/semi pro to do the actual job as a side hustle.
Um you didnt resurface or change your rotors. That can really be bad news for new pads. Just saying. Alot of newbies wont know this so it would be good to mention in the video. All in all good video.
bonjour: il n'est pas nécessaire d'enlever l'étrier, il suffit d'enlever seulement la vis du bas et de le basculer en arrière vers le haut il y a largement assez d'espace donc pas besoin de le suspendre,il tient tout seul. Je pense que pour l'arrière c'est pareil à moins que le câble du frein à main gêne.
Because customer wanted to replace em, but after they explained the reason for it..i had to redo em a 2nd time plus the rotor...reason being steering was shaking when they press brake pedal.

Thank you so much:) always appreciate the views and the support...The torque spec on those front brake caliper bracket bolts are 68-81 ft lbs.
Many thanks for being so kind. So if I have a 2014 CX-5 and I split the difference for the torque range and use 74 ft# I should be ok?
Yes, anywhere within that range is fine, i do the same exact thing split the difference
Thanks again!
Anytime:), good luck and hope all goes well.
holy fark, signature mazda stealership quoted me 500 for front and another 500 for back for my 2017 GT. I will be changing them out myself when the time comes.
Ouch lol those are some expensive quotes..yea u can definitely save urself a lot of money
Do you have to put the vehicle in maintenance mode and not manually twist the cylinder? I heard that can damage it if you dont.
Only for the rear brakes and its only for those with electronic parking brakes
Good useable video.
I need to do my brake pads soon.
Thumbs up
Thank you🙂 hopefully everything smoothly
Thanks for your video. Especially the lubricant part. My right rear squealed and had uneven wear on the inner pad. The fronts will have to wait till next year.

@@backyardchevy328 thank u so much really appreciated.
@@edmon179 glad to be able to help🙂
good and detailed video. good job my friend!
Thank you🙂
Very good video. I think you may be missing a couple plates on the pads. My 2014 CX5 has 2 plates on each pad.
Those are just on the stock pads...replacement pads only have one plate behind each brake pad
It looked to me like you had a lot of pad left, I think I would've waited. Do other people feel like that, or am I waiting too long. I helped my friend change his old Camry's pads last weekend, he had less than an 1/8th, I think that is a little excessive.
Are organic brake pads ok for this? Ceramic brake pads wear the rotors faster. I'm doing this soon on my 2014 CX-5 GT.
Well metallic brake pads would be the ones that wear out the rotors faster..ceramics are my favorite but they do put out a lot of brake dust...organics are good for daily driving if ur not gonna put em through heavy braking, but they will wear out faster than the rest
Would cleaning the slider pins before lubricating be a good idea?
yes, definitely..cleaning em and wiping off the old lubricant
Hello ,what brand did you use?thanks you For your answer...
The brake pads? In the video i used the autozone duralast ceramics
Thanks for sharing, great job!
Thank you:) Greatly appreciate the support
this is the second video i have watched and none have had to bleed the brakes.... its been a loooooong time since i have changed pads but dont you need to bleed anymore?
You dont have to bleed ur brakes unless u introduce air into the system, like if u change a brake hose or caliper if u do that then u gotta bleed brakes.
what about cleaning pushpins and bleeding an old break fluid which is right by the caliper??

Muy buen video gracias
Muchas gracias🙂
Dude! Why did you make the replacement of perfectly good genuine pads to some unknown(to me at least) third-party break pads?
Cause my friend wanted me to replace em still lol, they wanted to know they had new brakes all around so they wouldnt worry about em.
Very detailed
Thank you🙂
Novice video! You always change the hardware when changing pads.
Yea i definitely should have
Just use a pry bar to lever against the caliper before you remove it next time.
That'll compress the piston just fine.
Did you not have to put the electric brake on service mode?
Thats for the rear brakes, since the 2016+ mazda's have electronic parking brakes..but the one i was doing had the manual parking brake and then also i was doing the fronts
