I had the same problem, sticking piston in rear right caliper. So far I have just lifted the piston dust cover and syringed some brake fluid under it and it has freed up nicely, but I will some day do a refurb and your great tutorial will make the job a lot easier. Thank you very much.
when bleeding the brake, it's easier to use ratcheting wrench, also you can do without one way valve if you run that clear hose UP from the bleeding screw before routing it down into collecting container. For clamping brake line, just use a piece of cloth and vise grips.
Not sure what you mean. At 31:46 it's the bleeder screw, not the banjo bolt. The bolt appears at 29:30 and doesn't have a notch; the notch belongs to the brake hose and when installing the hose, the tip of the notch must go into the dedicated hole from the caliper. If you're referring to these 2, see from 29:17 onward on how the banjo bolt, brake hose and notch must be installed.
@@christophergalardo3457 No, apart from making sure the hose is sitting correctly on the caliper first, the bolt should be installed normally - start by hand first to avoid any risk of cross-threading and don't forget the 2 copper washers.
Good day boss I would like to have advice please My front left wheel is sometimes locked up and I went to the garage to change the caliper but just the day after the same issue comes again. When I went back to the garage he told me that you need to change the ABS unit I am just wondering because I never had the " ABS alarm " showing in the dash board and I scanned the car more than 3 times and the scanner is saying no error Can you please help me with this ?!
Hello! If it's a mechanical fault inside the ABS pump it's indeed possible to have it misbehave and lock up a wheel while showing no error on the dashboard. If a caliper and brake fluid change haven't solved the problem and it's only one wheel that locks up, it does indeed sound like a bad ABS pump that needs replacing. If the cost of a new one is too high, maybe try your luck with a second-hand part from a low-mileage donor car.
Very detailed video thank you. Did you remove, check and clean the caliper slider bolts as these can get water in and seize leading to premature and uneven pad wear?
At same last few days .put on new disc pads caliper .only pressure to left front brake and right side rear now ,have buddy bleed it 2 times no luck or breakes ..got quoted 2300 for abs pump .from kia .its a 2013 .17 crdi .any ideas as can't get mechanics .does this look like an abs pump fault. Thanks
It doesn't sound like the ABS pump to me. The ABS pump has 4 channels (since there are 4 lines that go to each of the wheels), so it's unlikely that 2 of the channels broke simultaneously. On the other hand, as far as I remember (though this needs to be confirmed with a mechanic) the Kia Sportage has a diagonal braking system, where the front left & rear right form one circuit and the front right & rear left form the other. These are controlled by the brake master cylinder which is connected to the brake pedal. From what you're describing, it's more likely that the brake master cylinder has partially failed and it now only supplies hydraulic to one of the circuits. So I'd start my investigation from there. Also, the master cylinder should be much cheaper to replace than the ABS pump. Best of luck!
@@TheMissingBoltthank you! I’ve attempted calling my dealer asking for these parts but they have me a stupid quote. Tried another dealer and they acted like these parts were not an option. I hate to replace a caliper because the dealers are just wanting $$
Incredible video. Congrats and thank you! For my couriosity:where are you from? You are not a native english speaker,but do you manage very good this technical terms. Daca esti roman,felicitari,esti tare de tot si as vrea sa tinem legatura pentru ca acest diy pe care il faci tu il fac si eu pentru masina mea (Kia Sportage 2014 1.6gdi).

@@alexandruiftode8761 Multumesc foarte mult! Intr-adevar, nu sunt mecanic de profesie, motiv pentru care orice lucrare pe care o fac dureaza mai mult decat ar dura intr-un service (aici contribuie si faptul ca filmez in detaliu). Insa ce fac fac din placere si in ideea ca le fac viata mai usoara (si poate menajez si portofelul 😁) altor persoane care doresc sa-si faca singuri aceleasi lucrari la masinile lor. Incurajari precum cele de la tine ma motiveaza foarte mult sa continui lucrul 🙂

You did a good job, with the car and the video!👍👍

True, the alternatives you mentioned work just as well, especially if the more specialized tools (one-way valve, hose clamps etc.) are not available.
Does the notch on the banjo bolt go opposite or does it align with the line notch before you tighten it? 31:46

@@TheMissingBolt I don’t know how the time got there. I meant is there a specific way I need to start the thread of the new bolt into the caliper .

I did do the caliper bracket and slide pin clean-up in the rear brake installation video, namely here: th-cam.com/video/0ncvWbMUiGQ/w-d-xo.html

Where and how did you get your parts. I’m having an extremely difficult time locating
I used genuine parts from a Kia dealer, based on my vehicle's VIN number. They weren't very expensive, despite being genuine.
