This process is only intended to take the shiny glaze off of the rotor, so that your brake pads do not squeak. It is not intended to straighten a warped rotor, but again to takeoff the shininess. But your question would be yes, you can just please be very careful to not get your fingers jammed against the rotor housing. Yes you can
Ok. I’m no professional mechanic just another wanna be backyard grease monkey 🙉 trying to save money , I have replace my brake pads but It would make loud scraping noise in the morning… I’m thinking I need to do this to my rotors. What do you think. Thanks
Now that depends on what vehicle you’re talking about. All these other junk cars you shouldn’t have a problem with, but if you own a Subaru, I’d be careful! That one’s going be a little hard. But again, we’re only deglazing the rotors not turning them
Those may not be his exact words but what he was saying is that you have aftermarket brake pads, (lifetime warranty) that do more harm than good to your vehicle. Imagine your metal brake rotor spinning and you’re trying to slow it down with two rocks squeezing the metal rotor. The rocks are scratching and damaging your rotor versus too soft erasers squeezing up against your metal rotor. When it comes to brake pads. I only use oem/factory.
Put it in gear. The Honda Odyssey is a front wheel drive vehicle. And yes, your ABS light will come on but it will reset itself once you hit like 20 miles an hour when your all done. Remember to get the appropriate sandpaper.
So many people saying this is wrong etc, that its gonna be the same soon again and the cause is cheap stuff. Lol. Thanks for showing people nice tricks like this even tho you get bombarded with dumb comments from people who don't know their shit.
I do admit, I was using the wrong sandpaper. I usually take the brake pads off and scuff them up as well but in this case I didn’t and I probably should have
I understand and will be doing everything described in this video. But, could you explain why putting the screwdriver in between the fins of the rotor would not cause major damage once you press the accelerator? Thanks.
The Honda Odyssey does not have a locking differential. Let’s take the screwdriver out of the equation, both wheels are spinning in the air, I could walk to either the left or to the right rotor and stop it with my hand and the other wheel would keep spinning. I could let go and then that wheel would start spinning the same speed as the other then walk over to the other side and stop it. The screwdrivers manipulating the system so that I can apply pressure to the wheel that spinning with the sandpaper. Note that is the wrong sandpaper and I do need to make another video with a different car. My Subaru all-wheel-drive would be a great video but may be a little too technical. Noted from an earlier comment mentioned that I did not see anything about opening the brake calipers so that the brake pads are not rubbing up against the rotor while deglazing the rotor. But that also was done with the flat head screwdriver in between the caliper and the rotor just pray back on it a little bit and open the caliper so that the pads are not rubbing against the rotors. Please be careful while doing this
@@james66872 After reading your comment I did some research on the different differential and I get it now. Finding out what type of differential I have is the key. I also better understand the part where you mentioned the opening of the brake calipers as well. This video helped a lot and is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Have a wild guess where the grit from the sandpaper goes? Straight to your brake pads hardwear introducing a horrobile squeal I can see your concept working but you have to dismantle the hardwear and clean it up for best results.
Wrong. And the very beginning of the video I said that you need to open your calipers so that the brake pads are not touching the rotors and that you must wipe them off private
My brake pads are like pretty new but when they replace them last I guess they didn't pay attention to the rotor because it's shiny as hell and squeals like hell when breaking in reverse. Is doing this without replacing the pads worth it? Because I don't want to waste practically brand new pads
So I was watching this video, which by the way is an awesome video but I couldn't stop laughing when you advice that you shouldn't be using sandals unless you are a "professional backyard technician" 🤣🤣🤣 I'm still laughing at that whole sentence, you're awesome buddy, you made my day, great video by the way.
Mr Conker is right. A flapper disc at an angle across not with the circle will break the glaze and take out imperfections enough to get a budget minded person along. The brake pads will confirm.
I'm sure he's trying to keep the car cool. It's probably an improper refrigerant charge (too much, or too little)...could be an airflow issue like dirty cabin air filter, or clogged condenser...causing either too high or too low head pressure. My bets that it's just not charged correctly.
Your can mess up your engine and transmission by running the vehicle in drive or reverse with it suspended in the air and no load on the wheels and motor trans ect.
I just put on new rear rotors, pads and calipers and one of my rotors looks to be glazed. The other one looks fine any advice? I didn't bed them in if I need to? I have driven probably 30 miles total since the job
uhmeizuhngralphf05 oh ya. Totally works. I need to update the video with the appropriate sandpaper and a Different technique that works 20 times better
@@james66872 super durable? Lol. Before my first flight, I had so many dents in the foam just from setting it up. Used lightweight spackle to fill them all up. First landing, more dents. Ugh. Its an ok glider as a trainer to get into better gliders, but on its own my opinion is its fragile and weak/slow.
Dont forget to deglaze the pads too. Great preventive maintenance tips....... But Brakes are something that shouldn't have short cuts on. But .......still great information for maintenance.
What makes them glazzy? I was just told my brakes were glazed. I am planning on changing rotors and brake pads. Will that fix my problem or will it come back?
Selman Heybeli Glaze is created from the dust and or after market brake pads. I don’t want to say that this is temporary but it’s a lot better than going out and buying new rotors and new brake pads when literally all you have to do is get rid of the glaze on the rotor itself and maybe scuff up the brake pad with the appropriate sandpaper not the same stuff I was using
Hard braking glazes rotors as well and low quality brake pads. You can always bring them to O'Reilly and have them machined. Costs at 15 bucks a rotor. The sandpaper trick isn't a long term solution. Buy brake pads that are scorched that you don't have to bed-in. Factory brake pads are the way to go.
@@Gearhead2286 the days of turning rotors are pretty much over. Most rotors don’t have enough metal for this now. Less metal equals more heat. More heat /thinner metal equals warped rotors. For the labor done it is worth it to swap to a quality rotor with decent metal.
@@1997LT1Camaro not everyone can afford to replace rotors. Factory OEM Honda Rotors have good thickness so to sage the customer money we machine them. It's all based on the customers needs and money. Not everyone can afford new rotors. That's just how Acura does it.
gwizz fpv I have a receiver with a aux1 on it. The L aileron goes to the aileron, and the R aileron goes to the aux1. Then choose Flaperons on your controller. It mixes by itself
Are those water intake pick-ups stock or add-on? I have the Zelos Twin and the pick-ups are part of the hull. They work well for me for now and my boat runs at a favorable temperature. Between 60's and 100. Runs a little hotter when going slower (obviously) but I've recorded the temp at just below 65. If I ever have to, I'm going to add a dual pickup rudder and continue to use the stock pick-ups on the hull as well. Either way, I'm sure those water inlets flow a lot of fluid through the boat.
Lane Waite how’s it going? I made them With some piping and a 12 inch piece of brass that I cut in length and just soldered it together works really well
