New Brake Pad & Rotor Kit from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1APB...
This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2011-2014 Hyundai Sonata. 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 process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2011 Hyundai Sonata
2012 Hyundai Sonata
2013 Hyundai Sonata
2014 Hyundai Sonata

Thank you for this very helpful step by step video! You even included socket sizes and torque specs. I have been putting this off for a month because I am at the age that I no longer have any desire to work on my own stuff anymore but couldn't bring myself to pay twice what I did to have it done. Took two and a half hours of back and for forth and searching for equipment to do the one side and like 15 minutes to do the other lol.

Really good video. Did the rear brakes recently which were an absolute pain since Hyundai engineers put one of the calliper bracket bolts in the worst position possible. The front brakes look a lot simpler to do, and after watching this refresher, I should be able to get this job done tmrw!

Great job! Perfect directions, best on the internet!

Great video. One of the best I’ve seen on KZbin for any mechanical work! Will subscribe. Thanks

Great video! I am going to watch it again as I change my brakes, step by step.

[@brianem9678]

Outstanding video! Informative and explained clearly.

God bless you

How do you remove the caliber on a 2011 Hyundai Azera? The second d bolt seems to be behind a metal bar?

[@michaelgardner6686]

Thank you so much for the help

[@Thedudeabides4444]

Do you have to crack the bleeder to compress the piston? Can I just compress it without cracking the bleeder, and potentially introducing air into the system and then having to bleed all the brakes?

[@ST_DIY]

Good video, but you never showed how you removed the stripped bolts holding the rotor. If that happened to a DIY guy most of them gonna get stuck. Also i wouldn’t open the brake valve since you can induce air in the system and you are having mess under even if you use a pan. Anyway you should replace the brake fluid when changing the brakes.

You sprayed brake cleaner into the wheel bearing hub, ... not a good idea, probbly wash dry the wheel bearing grease
