@eriknichols4509 2 года назад

I'm curious because I'll be attempting this over the weekend Do I have to bleed the brakes if all I'm replacing is the rotors and brake pads?

@repairvehicle 2 года назад

No bleeding is needed, unless you open brake line or piston from caliper gets pushed out to far out

@bblackdogg4352 5 лет назад

Rotor removal tip: buy a M8 x 1.25 size bolt and screw it into one of the threaded holes near the center of the soon-to-be-old rotor to separate it from the hub. it's **way** easier than trying to bang and hammer a rotor off that's rusted and stuck to the hub...

@k_escobar917 Год назад

Thank you for the tips brother. Just bought a very nice 2007 ES350 im going to do the brakes front and back tomorrow 👍

Congratulations. I still have my Lexus and I am amazed how nice it rides being 12 years old

Just replaced the rear and front brakes on my 2007 ES350. According to my local repair shop, my front brakes were unsafe with less than 1mm of braking material. Well, turns out they were still good with approximately 5mm of material left and the rotors needed only a good cleaning. I changed everything anyway. Yes, I saved lots of money by doing this myself but more importantly I learned never to trust my 'trustworthy' repair shop again. Many thanks.

@ryannrjohnson Год назад

Lexus dealership said the same thing about my wife car front brakes and rotors. I'm changing them now and brakes have about 65 percent life left and the rotors don't even have a slightest lip. Smh

@ryannrjohnson Год назад

Well I have to retract this reply, the storm only allowed me to complete the passenger side the other day. Last Night I replaced the drivers side and seen one of the Caliper pins were frozen causing one of the brake pads to look warped so yes, if one side needs to be changed then both do so the dealership was correct. I purchased it during the pandemic and my wife hadn't put a lot of miles on it, but I guess I gotta start taking vehicles apart when I purchase them cause some shops never grease the pins and that'll lead to problems.

@beerstudd 3 года назад

So many people don’t grease those pins. I find that the only way to get it done is to do it yourself. Thank you for showing the importance of it.

@shyn5613 3 года назад

@repairvehicle- You used Toyota grease to lubricate the pins. which grease did u use to lubricate the sides of the brake pads was it the same grease or other high temp grease?

@repairvehicle 3 года назад

Other high temperatures grease

@shyn5613 3 года назад

@@repairvehicle thanks for your response. Can I use any high temp or does it have to be brake specific. Can u share the name what u used.

@repairvehicle 3 года назад

You can use any high temperatures grease on the side of the pads. I don't remember what I was using in the video. I need to watch the video again to refresh my memory.

@robertbrewer9915 5 лет назад

can the top and bottom pins be lubricated without taking the caliper off the wheel?

@repairvehicle 5 лет назад

Wheel must come off. Caliper can be lifted up or down to get the pin out to lubricate.

@Fister_of_Muppets Год назад

Best way to do front brakes is to buy rotors, pads, and calipers for a Toyota Highlander and do that. Larger diameter rotors, twin-piston calipers, and they fit up perfectly on a ES350. Braking power is substantially better.

Hello, I'm confused about what tool to use. If I just want to remove the caliper, do I need 14mm or 17mm socket? I think both sizes are mentioned in the video.

@@repairvehicle So if I just want pad replacement, 14mm should be good. And If I need to remove the caliper assembly, than I need 17mm. Is that right?

What is the minimum size c clamp needed? Your clamp looks too big. Would size 7 or 8 inch c clamp be enough? Thanks

I have Size 6 and 8 and both work on my cars.

@@repairvehicle thanks. I have a 2018 Rav4 FWD XLE that has a sealed transmission but instead of a trans dip stick it has a thin black tube. Do you know what that is for.

Thin black tube is a breather tube, allows for transmission to exhaust air when fluid expands.

What issues might arise if you get the grease on the brake pad surface or rotors?

@repairvehicle 3 года назад

You just going to have hard time stopping car until all the grease burns off due to heat and friction.

@HuggumsMcgehee 3 года назад

@@repairvehicle Thanks for the timely answer! One more question, do you need to apply the C-clamp to the caliper in order to push that piston in? Should you take the cap off of the brake fluid before doing that?

@repairvehicle 3 года назад

Clamp applied to the caliper in the middle, avoid brake line bolt. Do not remove cap, moisture from air will enter brake fluid.

I don't think it matters, however I don't remember unless I watch my own video to refresh my memory

My rotors are seized on the hub. How do I loosen the rotor to remove it?

@repairvehicle 7 лет назад

Craig Seymour, use a bolt like I show in my video to break rotor loose or spray wd40 and hammer it on the rotor. Make sure you hit the rotor on the side.

@tardeliesmagic 7 лет назад

Good tip is every year get some Brake cleaner spray and give the front discs and pads incl rear brakes a good spray,you'll be surprised the difference it'll make.Do give the wheel nuts and metals surfaces a wipe with Copper grease while the wheels are off,it don't take that long.Look after your car and it'll look after you.
