- Save big money by changing your brake pads and rotors yourself on your Porsche. This video I’ll be going though a step by step in changing brake pads and rotors on the rear wheels of a Porsche 911 Carrera 991.1. I’ll even show you how to safely jack up your 911. This should cover many other 911’s like the 997, 987,986,996, Porsche Macan, Cayman and more models.
The material cost was roughly $600. The Porsche dealer quoted me a modest $1500. With this DIY I saved $900 and it wasn’t difficult.
I ordered the following from Suncoast Parts…
www.suncoastparts.com/
Rear Rotor Set - Set of Genuine Porsche rotors left and right side
Rear brake Pad Set - Set of Genuine Porsche
Caliper Bolts - Rear set of 4 factory replacement caliper bolts
Brake Pad Sensors - rear set factory replacement brake pad sensors
Other items ordered;
Black Wheel Hanger Alignment Pin Guide Tool:
Torque Wrench
Find the Wheel hangar and Torque Wrench here and shop for products I use and recommend on my Amazon Storefront….

Great Job and Tutorial; But please change @ 5:27min the 10mm HexBit to a 55 TORX (Star). Then you will get the Bolts out easily without running the risk of stripping them and most important when you but the Calipers back on, the Tourque will be applied correctly ;-)
Nicely done! I probably would have taken the time to clean everything up before reassembly. Perhaps that is OCD. :)
Thanks to your video instructions, I changed the rear pads, rotors and sensors on my 991.1 C4S this morning! My Porsche dealer here in Las Vegas wanted $2,200 for the rear break service! I bought everything from FCS euro for $600 shipped, and everything went as you described. Thank you for saving me a ton of money, sir!!
Spark plugs next, and BTW, I did an oil/filter change too by following your video.
That's great. Good to hear.
Perfectly explained, thank you !
you have the best DIY
Nice video. You sound very professional.
Wonderful video and instruction
Thank you very helpful.
TKY for the great video I will do the brakes on my 2012 911S
👏🏼 Great vid! Thx!
Nice explanations
Great video, I'm just about to do this job!
You need to do more of these videos
Great job
More to come. The car has been so reliable. Thank god!
Wheel bolts on 991 should be torqued to 118 ft/lbs
Yes 911s are stiff and that's part of the reason the front comes up when jacking, but the larger reason they come up on front is because the weight is in back and the way the suspension is tuned. Try lifting the front of the car and see if the same thing happens.
Some of my other front engine cars also do this but when I jack up the front. Admittedly those are also sportier cars with very sporty suspension.
Thanks for the certificate, i'll add it to the CV xD
Do you have the video for the front rotors ?
Nice floor
Every Torx bolt wants to be treated with a Torx tool, not with a Hex socket like you did!
What about the parking break, any adjustments on that? Any videos of replacement of these?
No adjustments
@@how2togoso, just disengage the electronic parking? Looks like the electronic parking brake works as drum brakes with cable, not activating the pistons or anything. Can you confirm that? Thx
Good sir, is this the same for my 2020 GT4? And how about the front brakes? Same thing?
I've never done a GT4. Probably slightly different but similar. One center lug and larger breaks.
anti-seize or locktite on the small rotor bolt? Did I see blue stuff on the tip?
Locktite on the side bolts. Anti seize on the small screw. That screw is just for manufacturering and when you take the wheel off so the rotor doesnt fall off. Once the wheel bolts are on this hold the rotor and the wheel.
Watched the whole video and I don't even own a Porsche, lol
do you need to replace the sensor or is it preventative maintanence??
If the sensor went off you should replace. If not you could re use.
Where are the rotors Porsche rotors or do you just get those from pelican?
I got these from Suncoast. They are all Porsche OEM.
Doesn’t look like you had the car in parking brake service mode. I guess if you don’t there’s nothing to calibrate when done?
Is there such thing ? The parking looks like it has its own pads behind the rotor, and if this is true, the parking brake just electronically pulls the cable to expand the pads. Subaru cars with epb work this way. Mazda epb actually activate the pistons so they have the service mode like you mentioned. I’m not sure though, someone please confirm.thx
Wow! A 991.1 already needs rear rotors?? My 2006 911S with 130,000 miles is still riding on original factory installed brake pads.
What is that back round sound? Youngsters playing sports?
Lol. Kids running around.
Steel or ceramic brakes?
Ceramic
Manual impact driver
Don't forget to clean new rotor surface with brake parts cleaner when installing. There is a anti corrosion coating that needs to be removed.
You mean rotor not caliper
Great video! They want $5k at the dealership where I am in the great white North for rotors and pads.
So, there’s no need for any bleeding of the brake fluid even after opening the brake fluid cap?
Subscribed and video saved
No need to bleed. 5k is crazy
@@how2togo I know, it is crazy! $600 for an oil change. But I’ve done them myself since I’ve been out of warranty.
Also, same steps for the front brakes?
Sorry, noob question, when do you have to bleed brakes?
I haven't done my fronts yet but I would think roughly the same. Porsche recommends bleeding brakes every 2 years.
You should really bleed brake fluid (which includes the hydraulics for the clutch) every year. It largely depends upon where you live. Since b fluid is hydroscopic it will absorb water from a high humidity environment. If you live in a dry area you can push the numbers more to the right.
It sounds like you live across the street from a park, or you did this at a child’s birthday party.
Lol
5:00 You talk about safety but you are wearing flip flops.
Lol, we dont wear shoes in California.
