New Brake Pad & Rotor Kit from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ic/1ABFS00515
This video shows you how to install new front brake pads and rotors from TRQ on your 2010-2014 Subaru Outback. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.
This repair was done on a 2012 Subaru Outback 2.5i 2.5L Wagon 4-Door AWD Automatic and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2010 Subaru Outback
2011 Subaru Outback
2012 Subaru Outback
2013 Subaru Outback
2014 Subaru Outback

Best videos I've seen yet. Clear, simple, quick, no babbling, no music track, just what want in a tutorial.

I was when I work on it on my day off, but then I see you have so many tools that I don’t have so I guess I’m paying now. Thanks for the video though.

What if the rusty rotors are stuck to the hub, not yielding to sledge hammer blows to the inner sidewall?

[@alexnelson8]

Not going to check the brake fluid level at the master cylinder after pushing fluid out of the system?

Much simpler way just release pressure on brake reservoir cap and use small automotive c clamp to opem up the calipers been doing it for 45 years about now
