Toyota RAV4 (2019-2024): How To Replace Front Brake Pads And Rotors In The New Toyota RAV4?

In this video, we will show how to service the front brakes in the 2019, 2020, 2021, 2022, 2023, and 2024 Toyota RAV4. We will show how to replace the front brake pads and rotors.
We will lift the RAV4 using the hydraulic jack and put it on the jack stands. Using a 14mm socket and 17mm wrench, we will remove two bolts holding the caliper in place. We will use the bungee cord to secure the caliper. Using the brake pad spreader we will push in the piston to allow the new brake pad to be installed. We will inspect the caliper pin boots. Using the 17mm socket we will remove 2 bolts holding the caliper bracket. This will allow us to remove and replace the rotor. We will apply the brake lubricant to the back of the plates that go on top of the brake pads. This will prevent the squeaking noise. We will point out the brake components that need an inspection every time you work on the brakes. In the end, we will show how to reassemble all components including the required torque values.
Tools used: 21mm socket, 14mm socket, 17mm socket, 17mm wrench, ratchet, torque wrench, hydraulic jack, jack stands, bungee cord, brake pad spreader, brake caliper brush, brake lubricant.

If only the dealerships would take their time to inspect those gaps, leaks, and wear everyone's cars would be running safer and cleaner. Thank you for the video.

Yeah after 2 Mazda dealers quoted me around 270 dollars for OEM pads with no hardware I said screw it and started to diy as much maintenance as possible. No labor included lol. Found powerstop brakes for the front and rear that were 100 after taxes and delivery and installed it myself. The investment in tools pays for itself within the first 2 years.

IN CASE ANYONE IS WONDERING…..For the bolt used to take off the rotor i ended up taking one off the engine. The bolt was in front of the oil fill cap in between a bracket that’s shaped like a U right above / across a ground wire . I took it off with a 12 MM socket…. For anyone wondering ❤

Hi, what brand of hydraulic jack did you use and what is the maximum height of your hydraulic jack

[@arthurarthur9745]

Good job. Also excellent video resolution. Well done. A friend told me that before replacing front brake pads I must disable (Brake Control) by removing the (Brake Booster Assembly) or else I would probably get DTC C1214 on my Hybrid RAV4!! What do you think? Is my friend right? Awaiting your most appreciated response on this.

[@jeffliu1697]

Very informative /instructive. I'm going to replace my front brake pad. 25000 miles. Began squeaking since 20k miles. Dealer wants to upsell for $350.

[@orlandparkcounselors7036]

Holy crap dude 20k miles?! You might just have debris stuck in there. Use aftermarket ceramics and get at least 60k.

[@condor5635]

@@orlandparkcounselors7036- I totally agree. He must be really bad on his brakes. I got 75,000 miles on my brake pads for my Highlander. You should easily get 40 or 50,000. If you’re having to change them after 25 you’re not driving it correctly

[@marianomontenegro7144]

what is the size of the nut that you used to remove the rotor

Thanks for the video. Is it always necessary to bleed brake fluid after replacing the brake pads 🤔

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Thanks! No, you don't need to bleed brake fluid after replacing brake pads.

[@knight3131]

The CRC SL3301 Synthetic Brake & Caliper Grease, 2.5 Wt Oz - did you put it around the rubber of the caliper ?

[@MorozovAutomotive]

You can apply a small quantity of this grease between metal plates on the back of the brake pads to reduce possible noise. If you need to use a lubricant for the caliper pins, we recommend this product: BRAKE CALIPER PINS LUBRICANT - Permatex 20353 Ultra Disc Brake Caliper Lube, 2 oz - amzn.to/42uahsu.

[@JigglesAndLaughter]

Does this apply to the RAV4 hybrid as well, since hybrid model had regenerative breaking hardware?

[@bssw218]

It's the same. The 2019+ hybrid and gas RAV4 have the same caliper and rotors. Hybrid RAV4s also have aluminum knuckles as the vehicle in this video so torque specs should be correct too. All the brake regen is done via the motors inside the transmission and rear differential.

[@gamingps5445]

I have a Toyota RAF 4 2019 Back door opens, not closes, and when the button is pressed to close it sounds like a whistle and does not close the door. Please can you help me .

So dont need to press the parking brake switch down with accessory on? For the front? Ty

No, you dont. Electric parking brake only blocks rear wheels.

[@felixlaboy1453]

Amazing video. What brand tools do you use or recommend

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Thanks! There are lots of great brands that you can use. I would say, it depends on your budget. Usually, the more expensive tools are made better and last longer. Snap-on, Gearwrench, Craftsman are some of them.

Здравствуйте, у меня вопрос: У дилера мне сказали что не рекомендуется менять колодки и диски самому, если в комплектации с emergency electronic brakes, что если я сам туда полезу, потом не будет работать эта система. Подскажите пожалуйста, врут или действительно так?

[@stefslyfe]

I changed the pads but couldn’t get the damn bolts on the bracket to budge in order the change the rotors. Not a desperate need right now so I’ll try again when we get another relatively cool day.

[@MorozovAutomotive]

A longer ratchet may work. You can also try using the penetrating oil.

Добрый день, Андрей! Спасибо за Ваши старания помочь всем нам! У меня вопрос - для RAV 4 `21 Hybrid комплект для замены передних и задних тормозов будет отличаться от негибридной модели?? Спасибо!

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Здравствуйте! И в обычную версию Рав4, и в гибридную ставятся одинаковые колодки. Задние - 0446602380, передние - 044650E060.

[@mikhailageev7609]

@@MorozovAutomotive Спасибо, Андрей, а тормозные диски как-то отличаются?? E-bay и Amazon по поиску для гибридных выдают ноль.. Это потому, что комплекты идентичны для этих модификаций? Спасибо ещё раз!

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Здесь необходимо уточнить- если у вас" Plug-in Hybrid"( он же "Prime" на северо-американском рынке) с возможностью внешней подзарядки, то тормозные диски и колодки от обычного гибрида не подходят. Диски и колодки бензиновой версии и обычного гибрида взаимозаменяемы в Северной Америке. Ничего не можем сказать о российской сборке. Всегда лучше проконсультироваться у местного дилера.

Hello. Does this procedure also work with a corolla 2020?

Вау Спасибо огромное Просто и понятно буду с коллегой на выходных Rav 4 менять Вопрос такой Стоит ли менять масло в коробке как требуется каждые 40 к

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Здравствуйте, масло самому можно менять только в ручной коробке передач. Для автомата после замены нужен апдейт софта у дилера и сама процедура требует спец инструмент.

[@cgofmh]

@@MorozovAutomotive спасибо большое Значит я сам не полезу А многие говорят говорят, что вообще не стоит менять, что в коробке оно не портится Какое ваше мнение

[@MorozovAutomotive]

Автоматическая коробка действительно "запечатана" , без контакта с атмосферой деградация масла минимальна но неизбежна, это так же неизбежно будет менять нормальный алгоритм работы коробки. Бортовой компьютер просто компнесирует эти изменения с учетом старения масла. Если масло заменили на новое, независимо от пробега (даже после нескольких тысяч), кто-то дожлен сообщить компьютеру что масло новое и необходимо вернуться к нулевой точке отсчета.Обычно это оборудование только у спецов с Тойоты. Сложность непосредственно физической замены масла состоит в точном определении уровня в коробке при заданной температуре (не линейная зависимость обьёма от температуры). Всё это есть у дилера и он не торпиться делиться ни оборудованием ни софтом. Есть трюки для замены масла но без апдейта софта коробка будет работать с провалами и зависаниями и чем старее было масло до замены тем заметнее буду эти явления на новом масле. Рекомендованного пробега для трансмиссионного масла нет, комп сам отправит код для сообщеняя о техобслуживании когда насчитает достаточное колличество оборотов вала в коробке, либо дилер порекомендует сделать этот сервис базируясь на своей информации. Подтверждённой статистики для такого пробега пока нет- слишком молодая модель.

[@winaraj]

you didnt bleed the brake fluid?

[@condor5635]

Just because you’re changing the pads doesn’t mean you need to bleed the brake fluid. Bleeding the brake fluid is when you’re changing or flushing the fluid. You shouldn’t have to do that at all when you’re replacing pads and rotors. The key thing is to cycle your brake pedal several times before putting it in drive to allow the booster to equalize the brake fluid in the lines.

[@uhsenli6424]

you don't put brake greese between the pads and the sliver plate. you put it in the caliber bolts.

[@akadoublea8975]

It's a wear point. You grease it. 🤦‍♂️
