Brakes plus quoted me $600 to fix this. Followed this video instead. 30 min and $40 later, I have brand new brakes that make zero sound. 10/10, thank you. Also liked how to the point this video was. Sadly a rarity these days.

how much torque for brake bolts ?
@DLSmith920563 ай бұрын
Note: These are the FRONT Disk Pads. The Rear mechanism is harder due to parking brake system, etc.
@scottyboy240010 күн бұрын
Thx for the video friend! - What about the back ones? I heard they were a lot harder. Toyota wants $700 to do all 4. That is the price if the rotors are good. No telling what it would be if ya needed new rotors or they have to turn them or resurface them. I have to make a move soon so hoping I can find a video on the rear ones now. Thx

When I changed the first set of brake pads it was ok, then I did the other side and the piston came out of the caliper, I tried to put it back in and it won’t go in, then oil came out?

Don’t need grease, I wouldn’t do it because of how water wind your risking of getting some grease on your rotor and brake pads , 👍

@@ImmiSuccess all calipers move on slide pins. Most Calipers are bolted to the slide pins. These need to be taken out cleaned and greased with new grease. Sometimes the hole the slide pins are in need to be sanded out or even honed out a touch.
