You should have let us know why the passenger brake pads we're down to nothing and the other side still like good pads
Yep I Love my breack cale0er tool to
Hey you inspired me to do my own water pump very big job for someone that has no clue I did it though go check it out yourself let me know how i did i made a video of it:) on my channel
The key is in the angle…
I hate the new hardware kits. I typically have to adjust them…aggressively with the grinder
that's it- i'm checking my brakes!
Why not just reuse the old shims? Would have saved you 3 minutes of futility.
Don't you have mandatory yearly car inspections in the US? In Sweden, and probably many other European countries we have yearly mandatory inspections, if the car does not pass it is not allowed on the road anymore. To little breakning pad margin will fail your car
anyone know the name of socket attachment used at 6:49?
How about a better look at your impact screwdriver?
So what would cause so much more wear on the passenger side over the driver side? Carting a fatty, I mean much larger individual… around in the passenger seat?….LOL
im replacing the brake pads and possibly the rotors on a friends honda civic tomorrow and after watching rays video im sure that i will be successful and do a good job..
of course i know its going to take me a hell of a lot longer to do the job… haha.
I would want u to be my person to work on my car. Honest but fair and very detailed
i have had all kinds of problems with those dam screws.i no longer put those waste of screws in the rotor,nope no more.
Man, I wish I could have you for car mechanic in my area.
didnt put lock nut back in boot
didnt inspect rears
As a mountain biker i hate that you are touching the rotors with dirty gloves but you do you, i am not a car mechanic you know better
Just why let it get worn out like that
No thread lock!!!!!! REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE……… REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!
your like batman with your tools. c clamp ha! im such a novice.
I agree with you on a lot of things but because the manufacturer decided to cheapen their build cost is no excuse for not doing things properly and safely. There are several things that manufacturers do not do that should always be done. Anti-seize on spark plugs they're in any aluminum motor. Anti-seize on the Hub when you put the rotor on, anti-seize on lug nuts or lug bolts. I have seen cars with the wheels seized to the vehicle with only 12,000 miles on them and less than 8 months old. Is that something that the manufacturer designed into the car to keep the Wheel from falling off?
Please don't ever use that excuse again!
Proof that you do not always listen to your own advice. The factory doesn't break them in when they put the brakes on. At least you're doing that right LOL.
I have one of those caliper tools works great
Those shims are annoying I was trying to place them on but I found out the hard way yea 2hrs later lol
And sounds like it's getting worse 🙃
What is the impact tool to get the screws out, that is handy!
I DO LIKE THIS VIDEO ,,, THANKS FOR YOUR TIME !!!!!!!!!!!!!
it has a washer, it wont need that stupid threadlocker.
14:00 brake service any% 🤣
I bought a van that sounded like that…. I could play ring toss with the 'rotors'. Still have some weirdness with the brakes, but it stops now. It's amazing how bad brakes can get and still stop you, though.
Other than GDI…
This Braked world I have also struggled with on KIA/Hyundai…. even had a right rear hang , and steam extra…. as the Brake rear on one got hung.
The customer knew that there's a noise to let you know to change your brake pads. He was just waiting for it to get louder because that's the true indicator of brakes need attention.
I don't think I have seen anyone torque my lugnuts in 10 years just air
Import Direct pads are better
looks awesome to work on cars with no rust
I'd be very curios why the one side wore so much more than the other side. Brake hose restriction??? Perhaps?
I have found that if the outer pad wears faster than the inside pad, usually the caliper is binding or not floating back. Sticking pins or other hardware is usually the issue. If It's the other way around then it's usually a stuck piston. I did notice that when you put the inner pad on, the wear indicator on the inner pad should pull toward the pad as the rotor turns which is clockwise on the right side. That's the way I've always done to avoid it from being bent away and rendering it useless. Great video as always.ðŸ‘
Man they must have been riding those breaks HARD on that soul, 67k and the front break pads were gone? I have a 2010 that has almost 100k on it and I have only needed to replace the front breaks once since I got it.
