My C7 Corvette Grand Sport was suffering from an abundance of brake dust from the stock Brembo pads that are installed on C7 Corvette Grand Sports and C7 Corvette Z06's. The dirty Brembo brake pads on the C7 Corvette's is a known issue that can be solved with a simple brake pad swap. I elected to replace the factory Brembo pads on my C7 Corvette Grand Sport / Z06 with Power Stop Z26 Extreme Carbon Ceramic brake pads. This was by far the easiest brake pad replacement job I have ever done on a car. The engineers of the C7 Corvette designed a simple pad replacement procedure.

Happy New Year! How is the brake dust situation on your car? And, let me know if this is the easiest brake pad swap you’ve ever seen. Hopefully I’m not cleaning my wheel as much as I used to. 👍

I know this is 4 years old, but it sure helped today. Before applying the power of persuasion, hammer, to the back of the pad, I thought it was best to consult the internet! On my first rear brake I had put the pad with the “squealer” on, on the inside and it wasn’t going in smoothly…Thank You for the video, it saved me from making a dumb mistake!

I did the brake pads with the Z26 pads Friday 7/19/2024. I had to use a floor jack for each wheel as I don't have a lift. I also washed each wheel. It took me 2 hours and 45 minutes to complete. I hope my brake dust sorrows are behind me now. Thanks for the video. It was a pretty easy job.

Aww, thanks man, for that dedicated cold start! You're too kind! The C7 sounds awesome as always. It truly put a smile on my face to see this. Happy New Year to you! Oh, and this is making me want a Corvette again. It was and still is my first love. I've used a Power Stop kit on my Ford Explorer Sport Trac and they are a reliable manufacturer to purchase from. I'm going to end up swapping out brake pads in the i8 because of that same brake dust problem. The inside of my rims are glossy. Even after washing the car and pulling the car in the garage, the rotors are immediately shedding material from the brake pads all over the inside of the clean rims. It's annoying. I'm glad to see your How To. I have Brembo brakes up front and a standard small brake calipers in the back. With regeneration helping, big brakes weren't a necessity. However, getting rid of annoying brake dust is a necessity on all 4 corners.

That frigg'n white tornado he drives has only a three 3️⃣ pistons! If he was "normal," like us 😜, he would call himself "I3 Pah T." He needs our help fast Guyz, before he starts driving Fords. Oh wait, I've heard he's already on his third Sport Trac. He must be totally under the controll by Master Yoda. If I see him starting to levitate the White Tornado in his garage, I'll know that I can never bring him over to the ways of the Dark Side.😟 Plus, what also worries me is that he never shows us the back of his mechanic's garage shirt. If it says "Silently but Deadly," I'm never going to Pa. ever again! Save the Wave Corvetteers 🗽

@@Team512 I have a 2018 Stingray with chrome rims. I always check for dust after a drive and believe me I can not find dust anywhere. My car has 4000 miles on it and came with the stock smooth Corvette rotors from Chevy. I will never use slotted rotors. Everyone that complains about dust either has a Grand Sport or a Z06. Hence the slotted rotors. Do yourself a favor, if you're still not completely satisfied with the dust issue since installing your new pads, get a set of smooth rotors and put them on. You will be amazed. Your car will stop on a dime and I guarantee your brake dust issue is completely gone. If you still have the pads you took off in this video, save them. The next time you need new pads, put them back on. There's nothing wrong with them. If you want to further clarify, ask anyone that has a stock Stingray, or go look at one and check it for dust. You won't find any. Then check out another stock Grand Sport or Z06 with slotted rotors. You will find plenty of dust.

So I purchased the exact same pads but let the guys at the dealership do the install and they informed me that these pads wont fit due to some sensor that was in the way and also said the rear pads were completely different. Anyone else experience this issue?? my grand sport is a 2018 by the way, don't know if that should matter.

I’ve never heard of that with brake pads before. Especially these. They slid in really easily.

Hi Scott does your driver rear brake pads have a line gap in it? Mine has a line in it and is causing the rotor to show a line on it

Does that Dewalt driver take the lugs off at factory torque of 100ft pounds or do u need to use bar to break them loose first ? I have a electric Ryobi impact drill rated at 183 ft pounds and it can’t take the lugs off when they are torqued to 100 ft pounds lol.

Great question. I typically don’t put any thread locker on my brake bolts. You could use the blue stuff. I would avoid the red thread locker tho.

If thats all the brake dust you have after 100 miles, you have no dust issue at all.

The new pads have significantly less dust than the stock Brembos. Cleaning just got easier. And that was the purpose for the swap. Thanks for watching! 👍

Are you referring to the procedure or the pads? The brake pads are different between the Stingray, the Z51 and GS/Z06.

@@charliebricks9323 Gotcha. I believe the majority of brake dust issues are with the GS and Z06's. As far as I know, the Stingrays are safe from the dust. Congrats too! You'll love it.
