Just ordered the complete kit for about $40 less than what the auto parts stores wanted for just the front pads and rotors. You all are beyond awesome in my book.

[@martin7473]

DO NOT PLAY WITH THAT BLEEDER .. JUST PUSH THE PISTON .. COZ. IF YOU DONT KNOW HOW TO DO IT PROPERLY YOU WILL PUT AIR IN THE SYSTEM .. SO DONT UNSCREW THAT BLEEDER .. JUST PUSH THE PISTON IN .. WITH A BIG SCREW DRIVER . BY PLACING IT BETWEEN THE DISC AND THE PAD ..... ITS EASY . FAST .. AND SAFE

[@1AAuto]

+martin Thanks for the tip!

[@notjj_9532]

Yeah personally I’ve never seen that everyone says it’s okay to just push it in and just take off the brake fluid cap but the rest of the video was great

[@darkegress4392]

If you have a large C-Clamp use the old brake pad across the piston and slowly tighten the C-Clamp to compress it.

Just did the repair and had a good drive to test it, thanks you guys so much!!!

[@markmills344]

Great video!

[@elipsorange]

Wish I had the tools you guys have. Pins siezed up. Bolts that are on the housing are rusted, can't get them off without powertools. Just had to order a new housing, unfortunately. Great video and taught me a few things. Thanks again for the information.

Pinching an older rubber flex line can cause damage to the interior of the line resulting in restriction of fluid flow. Only pinch new/newer lines.

[@brooklynkeith2877]

I am about to attempt a Break Swap on my 07 elantra rotors and pads and this was excellent and informative. This is what YT should be about. I have a small question in the beginning with the bleeder do you absolutely have to do that? Or can it be done with regular vicegrips if you dont have a star socket?

[@matthewberry5684]

Can you explain what you mean by you wanna make sure the bleeder is open before pushing the pistons in ? Reason I’m asking is you broke it open and then tightened it again with a regular socket.

[@back-corner-turnings]

Do new tins not come with the pads you sell?

[@Bluegreenred]

Is it easy the first time or challenging?

[@pjmclenon]

hello i changed my pads and rotors in 2016 and again in 2017 and now again i have to change..at 32k and 40k and now 55k km..each time always same thing..pads are seaized because no grease enuff why???...the mecanic said he greased each time...Lisa

[@WillThaThird]

Are the front calipers the same as the back on a 2007 hyundai elantra ? Can't seem to find rear calipers on 1aauto

[@irisbaez1972]

the rear caliper is smaller.

[@krystoffersprague6100]

Heh I could NOT take the rotor off the front and he failed to show the set screws that hold the rotor on the hub when taking it off.

[@adventureguy4119]

Gonna have to do this al I live alone and don’t have friends to take it to the auto shop Jesus Christ is still good

[@vandenbroekeengineering9312]

So thankful I dont live somewhere they salt the roads. Everything looks like it sat underwater at the beach for a year. Nightmare

[@tylerb3487]

Yeah it sucks living in ny but I try to undercoat mine

[@justingilbert3171]
