[@WorkingWithWimberley]

You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped!

[@thecoganfamily]

What paste did you place in the back of the pads & on the bearing hub? Anti seize? Good video. Good job.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

You’re welcome! I’m glad the video helped! I used this on the pads: amzn.to/3DXdkBL And just a little bit of this on the hubs: amzn.to/408MnTp

[@RVMortimer]

Good job man! Thanks for the vid. All the shops wanna charge $1500-$2600 around here to do the brakes... that much cheddar, I'm do that myself, thanks. Appreciate you making this vid, very informative and included what tools we need. Thanks man.

@@WorkingWithWimberley thank you for sharing, should we keep the eye on the break fluid and open the cap?

Great job, thanks from the UAE.

Quick Question. I have a 2012 Cayenne. are the Ceramic or something else. I dont know which brakes to buy. Thanks for your help.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@TheeChurchGuitarist Which trim level do you have? Base, S, Turbo or S Hybrid? I’m pretty sure your brake pads are ceramic. Unfortunately Porsche used different sized rotors based on the trim. I had to take them off the car first and measure them to make sure I ordered the right ones.

[@richardshaw7386]

Great vid and quality craftsmanship in your work!

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Thank you very much!

[@mikevanamburgh4737]

Thank you for the video! I'm about to order parts for my 2013. I've read there is a wear sensor on each corner. Is that true? Just making sure, because my BMWs have always had just one on the front and one on the rear.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@mikevanamburgh4737 To be honest, I don’t know. I only removed the fronts. I didn’t get into the rears at all.

[@mikevanamburgh4737]

​@WorkingWithWimberley did they both have a sensor up front?

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@ Yes they did. One sensor on the driver side and one on the passenger side. The sensors were included with the pads.

[@cormid]

Superb

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@cd231]

Awesome job, very helpful for me (2017 base Cayenne)!

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Great! I’m glad the video helped!

[@mariolagunes5023]

Hi @WorkingWithWemberley! What kind of brake pads did you used, ceramic or iron? TIA.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

We used ceramic pads.

[@mariolagunes5023]

#WorkingWithWemberley I have The Cayenne 2017 Platinum edition, which brakes should I use? TIA

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

We used a pad and rotor kit by Power Stop that we ordered off RockAuto.com I don't know which brakes you need. Porsche used so many different brakes on this car, I removed the old rotors and measured them before I ordered a new set because I couldn't tell which ones to buy.

[@chrisgandhi6463]

what type of anti squeal grease did you use?

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

[@marcsmith3881]

Great video! I recently did a 2014 Base for a customer, and you have to make sure you have the correct brake rotor diameters because it effects the pads also. The rotors can be 350mm or 360mm. on the base model, and the pads will reflect that as well.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Thanks! You are correct. I actually removed and measured the rotor before we ordered the new parts.

[@marcsmith3881]

@@WorkingWithWimberley That was smart. My customer told me they were 350mm and was wrong causing a headache, but he covered all of the additional costs.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@marcsmith3881 That’s good. We couldn’t figure out which ones were correct online. Measuring was the only sure way.

[@sanhthuan]

What was the size you measured? And what brand and where did you buy your pads and rotors? Thank you 🙏

[@opusone]

What was the grease you applied inside the caliper? Thank you!

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@opusone This is what I use now. amzn.to/3TsE4PF

[@opusone]

@@WorkingWithWimberley thank you!

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@opusone No problem!

[@opusone]

@@WorkingWithWimberleyBTW, how would you know rotor replacement is needed? My 2017 Cayenne S has 59000 miles.

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@opusone There would be two ways of knowing. If during braking you have a vibration in the steering wheel, your rotors may need to be replaced. And if you have a lip around the outside edge of the rotor, that means the pads have worn down the rotor and it may need to be replaced.

[@cdlfoot]

Are there differences for 2018 Cayenne Platinum

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

I’m not sure. Porsche used a lot of different brake set ups, even for the 2017. There were different rotor sizes and pads. I had to physically measure the rotors to make sure we purchased the correct ones.

[@juanherrera2672]

Any reset needed on the ECM?

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

@@juanherrera2672 No. Just make sure you replace the wear sensors when doing the brake pads.

[@alexandraava3034]

Great video

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Thank you! I’m glad the video helped!

[@sillysciben8092]

Thanks for your help, ya missed removing the pads after squeezing pistons back but presumably that bit is self explanatory at that point! 🤞

[@WorkingWithWimberley]

Yeah, I guess that part was left on the cutting room floor! 😂

[@APACIN1]
