I did my brakes and rotors recently had to use a 20lb sludge hammer to remove, I used enough anti seize to keep it from happening. My front end has new ones but when I press my brakes I can hear a clamping noice any idea. My rotors get replaced every other year here in Pennsylvania

Jim you saved me a lot of money , even my wife is finally impressed with me 😁

[@frankbeck9405]

One of the best videos I've seen here. Clear instructions, list of tools, socket sizes, ..., the works. Great site.

[@richardstewart-jones4155]

Thanks Jim - keeping it simple, step by step. Like the way you show the parts that are a bit problematical, like getting clips to locate properly, rather than missing that part of the video and pretending it was all easy!

[@FloridaSunMitochondria]

Easily the best CRV rear brake video on KZbin…no comparison!

[@alexandermolina1728]

You need to keep doing videos. Many people can replace parts but not too many are good teachers. You are a good teacher. Keep up the good work and thanks for all your help

[@John_GGG]

Jim, I couldn’t have done it without you, seriously! I couldn’t get the rotor off on one side. One side was a challenge, the other side was not possible. I just beat the heck out of the second side and it finally came off, both sides done. New pads, rotors and calipers. For this job I had to use a bolt extractor and an impact tool, I was very skeptical but both worked great.

[@user-vm5ys2fx4g]

Jim, one of the best how-to videos I have ever seen! Made my brake job on the honda so much smoother and less frustrating. Very professional- thank you!

[@geeitsphil]

Greetings from CA Jim! Perfect timing as my aunts CRV needs the brake pads changed. Thank you for the detailed video!

[@godygody8991]

Very very professional job, I love to learn from people that really knows what are they doing 👍

Thanks Jim, you’re like the father I never had walking me through the entire process. Excellent video!!

[@jimthecarguy]

Glad you enjoyed it.Thanks for watching.

I like your warning speech about the burning smell. I give the same speech every time I do a rotor replacement. New York

[@sailinon1969]

@jimthecarguy I cannot thank you enough for the trick about using a drift to loosen up the two screws on the rotors! I have used your videos to change the brakes out on our Highlander and now our CRV, and I don’t even want to tell you what I did on my wife’s 1998 Honda Civic when I tried to change her rotors out. It has been a while, but I think I actually went to a confession to apologize for some of the words I used. Please keep on keeping on with your videos and sharing of knowledge. Sincerely, the universe.

[@ArnoldEhahounTheMasterTropical]

Just finished mine. Took me 5 hours but I got it done. Props to you sir!

[@darcyscott2406]

I just want to thank you Jim, after watching your video a couple of times I replaced the rear brake rotors and pads on my wife’s 2012 CRV. Come to fine out the person that did it last time bent the tabs over on the pads that fit into the caliper piston. Thanks Jim again, from Northwestern Vermont

[@manuallabor7193]

From Austin Texas. I love your videos and I have learned alot from watching them.

Thank you! I’m was in the middle of a brake job on my CRV and forgot how the stainless clips were installed. I appreciate you Sir.

Jim you're an absolute champ, easy to follow and manage to successfully change both rears on my 2002 CR-V.

[@dinkbuster1]

Dude this video saved my ass! Those little screws that hold the rotor to the hub I could not bust them loose even with an impact driver, I done like you showed in the video and whacked on them a few times with a 3/8 extensions and a hammer and they came right loose, THANK YOU!

[@ronadams3194]

[@ahmadghosheh3104]

Good video Jim. I always replace the rubber boots and slide pins on the caliber. Many pad kits comes with the boots and the pins are only $10 extra. This is especially important if the slide pin has a rubber ring at the bottom of the pin, those normally get swallon over time and make the slide get stuck.

Thanks for watching. Hope all is well with you.

[@bw5970]

Thank you for doing this. Very thorough. I undid the two 12mm screws and the caliper is loose but i can't pull it off. Could it have something to do with the piston?

[@eriksilence9029]

Great video. I would also check the brake fluid level after doing this😉

[@twig3288]

The fluid level should be checked before and after, if it's very full it could spill over when the caliper piston is pressed back.

Very good video. Just did mine for the first time. One question: shouldn’t I be using copper anti-seize on all of the metal-to-metal instead of silicone paste, just using the past for the guide pins?

[@tlmswm]

Good tutorial. New York.

[@wyattoneable]

Tennessee! Do I get extra credit for watching the entire video? (ha ha)

[@halgiles299]

Great instruction, thanks. One thing that could have been helpful, but not mentioned: there are two THREADED holes in the rotors. Had I seen them, I would have screwed two bolts into them, and tightened them against the end of the axle, to push the rotors off. Not knowing that, I had to pound all around the drum. then tap one the edge of the rotor, while turning it, to overcome the rust and get it off.

[@erichelfrich1011]

When pushing the inner pad and clips into the brake caliper piston, HOW DO YOU MAKE SURE ITS ORIENTED/ALIGNED properly to mate with the brake disc,caliper hardware? Do the clips slide into CHANNELS INSIDE THE CALIPER PISTON? Please reply if you can ?
