2013 - 18 nissan altima rear brakes 

Thank you for the helpful video. I just changed my wife's 2015 Altima 2.5 front and rear rotors and pads today. Unfortunately, I didn't understand until the rear brakes video the importance of a high temp grease versus low temp so I had to go back and regrease the caliper pins. And before that on the front brakes I didn't realize the bottom of the pad clips needed to be pushed aside to provide a spring action to hold the pads in place. I just placed the bottom slot past the clip next to the rotor. So I had to go back and fix that. Ugh. Long day but thank you for saving us money. Nissan quoted $850 plus tax and I did it for $410 plus about $120 in tools and supplies I didn't already have. And that is with Bosch pads and "premium" rotors.

Ty for this video. I replaced my break pads myself today after watching this. I'm pretty proud of myself lol :)

Excellent job. I like the way you place the camera so we see exactly what you are doing. Keep up the great work. 👍🏾 and I subscribed

I don’t subscribe to many people but I definitely subscribed! Thanks man

Great video! Thank you for sharing

very nice video by the way.

@the mech a nic you saved me $430. 00 dollars thanks man for posting this video.

Awesome

Thnx for the detailed breakdown! It really helped!

Just found out a few hours ago why you used a wrench and then a ratchet wrench 🔧 that damn piece in the way won’t allow a ratchet and socket not a frustrating solution but I understand now I appreciate the video for the rear and front brakes it made me understand the job and execute it and keep using that brake caliper tool I don’t wanna see you in violation of a C clamp lol 😂 just joking brother thanks and take care

Excellent video! Never thought of using blue loctite on the bolts.

Well Done Sir

The plug on the rotor has to placed in the correct location! If it’s not ...you won’t be able to access the screw to adjust parking break. My parking breaks needed adjustment with the new rotor..Nice video helped a lot.

Thx bro

i liked the big effing hammer followed by light little love taps

Awesome.......

Thanks

Thank you for this video. Do you know the original brand name brake rotors that Nissan puts on their altimas?

what tools is that small pry bar?

At the 7:50 mark, can you use sil-glyde as lube where the old hardware(clips) were before you put the new clips on or does it have to be the stuff you used? I only have the sil-glyde but read you could use that on the back of the pads and the brake pad pins so was wondering if I could use that on the caliper before putting in the new shims?Although I know in another video in the comments you said you don’t use grease or lube on backs of pads or pins as it attracts dust/dirt

Great video I followed every step and seems like my brakes are perfect but my parking brake doesn’t hold on hills? In park and brakes on hills is fine but on parking break did I miss something

What is the title of the epic background music when you were cleaning the rotor?

Any body know the size of the caliber screw? To replace the caliber?

Really helpful, but how do I test the new break " don't know if they're breaking" and how do I adjust the parking break cuz it not working

Quick question. Should I do one side and then pump the pedal the same way I did when I replaced the front pads?

I noticed you did not put any brake parts grease where the brake pad slides on the brake hardware. Do you recommend they stay lube free?

I dont know much about car but is there any type of rotor and pads thats needed for the car that you recommend? I just want to change it on my own.

Where did you put the jack? Looks like it's right behind the wheel. Why not the jacking point on the frame to the right of the tire? Or the center of the car frame in rear? Thanks!

Hey, mech a nic- where's that music from? It sounds "adventurous" like Star Trek or Lord of the Rings.

what type of grease do you put on the ends of the pad? do i use the supplied lube or is that just for the pins?

@ the mech a nic do you have to press the brake release paddle down in order to install the rear brake?

What’s the blue stuff you put on the bolts is that necessary??

Did you have to push the piston back in

Watching you with this file lmao you have a good concept but you Should never say your a mechanic I watch to see how many vids are posted b4 I post a video of the same work. Another pointer you should use never seize not brake parts grease debris stick more to grease your doing a good job just try to use a file in 1 direction and try to be better informed not to say your way is wrong but their are more ways to be easier. Good luck in the future

Thank you for replacing the hardware. I've seen a few of these where these dudes are like, "oh yeah the existing hardware here looks fine, we'll just brush some of the shit off them with a wire brush!" Uhhhhh no. If you're going to do the job, at least do it right. Replace the f'n hardware people. Yeah, it's gonna cost you more money to get it, but, wouldn't you rather spend a little extra for new hardware as opposed to having that flimsy ass shit fail on you later while you're trying to stop a moving vehicle from 65 mph? Come the hell on...

What does it mean 30* lb ft?

anybody notice this car got pads and shoe brakes on rear I never seen both like that on rear

I'm confused so the rear breaks are pads and drums pads

do you have front brake video? 2015 altima

What would the front caliper bracket bolts be torque number

Good morning.....Semi-metallic or ceramic?

Question bro, What does the rotor plug actually do that rubber piece ??

I replace my break pads in my g37 but smoke and burn smell was grinding when driving and squealing what did I do wrong?

I just changed them and followed this process and now I hear a squealing noise :(, what can it be ??

is there a reason i cant get the 14mm nut out i was hitting my ratchet as hard as possible and it wouldnt budge

How and the hell you loosen up those 14mm bolts?! Mine are like cemented on there!

Would this work on 17’ Altima SR?

No lube on the ears of the pads?

Will this work on a 2016?

Thanks for the video. I can't trust any mechanic cause they always rip people off. I been trying to do my own pads and rotors for a while now. But I have none of those tools. Can you please list the tools for me. What are there proper names , so I can purchase it . Thanks

why did you put 18 when you say it only goes to 15

Is the rear brakes pretty much the same as the front?

Aye bro I have a few questions

Ok i hate drums the springs spinning stuff to much for me I would not just want to do the pads and leave my shoes old but can't do the shoe stuff mechanic time there

The music is really annoying.
