Well done video buddy, glad you shown included first step of doing brakes is opening the Master cylinder cap letting it lay ontop of the master cylinder reservoir, i seen lot videos out here on other channels they never mention or show doing this whichbis very important doing this, thanks for the posting👍
Great video. It's the first time I am going to do my brakes on my camry, but I have done plenty of brake jobs. The only thing I would suggest is putting anti seize where the rotor comes in contact with the wheel bearing and the rim. Makes it a lot easier to remove the rotor next time. Great job though.
Good video, going to put front pads on my 2017 Camry that we bought new. I’ve put lots of brake pads on but I wanted to maybe learn some tricks on the Camry. Thanks!
Great video thanks. Just did our brakes. Was going to do rotors also but I couldn’t get them off even hitting with a hammer. Guess their rusted on. I will do them later on and just soak them with some blaster.
Thank you for this video, my question is - how long the front and back brake pads and rotors would last in general? It looks like these rotors were in good shape and you did not have to replace them.
It depends on your driving. But if I was to guess, you can probably go 30-50k miles for the front and maybe 90-100k miles for the rear. That is just my guess.
@@OEMEangg Thank you for getting back to me so quickly. I just verified my brakes, and it looks like they are half-worn. My Toyota Camry 2017 has only 51K km on it. Do I need to change the rotors with the brakes each time I replace the brake pads?
No need for bedding. It is recommend to drive and brake smoothly for the first 100 mile or so. Avoid sudden stops. (BUT of course if it is an emergency, by all means, hit the brakes.)
Could I use the brake and caliper grease in place of the silicone paste? I'm also wondering if I can just loosen the bleeder screws as opposed to using the C-clamp to squeeze the pads?
I'm not sure if you can use the caliper grease in place of silicone paste. Yes, you can open the bleeder instead of compressing the piston. Just make sure air is not going to enter the brake system by using the "bottle with a tube filled with brake fluid".
Just have another question? I was able to change the brake but I guess the rotors had kinda rusted. I tried hitting the back of them with a hammer and they didn’t move at all. They don’t have any of the set screws in the front. I’d there s trick or something I am missing
I have a video for brake job on a Toyota Highlander. In it, I show how to take off a rusted rotor. You will need to get two bolts. You can start the video around 3 minutes in. th-cam.com/video/wwku41OIUeA/w-d-xo.html
@@riddit_stories97 Some people call it a caliper compression tool or a disc brake pad spreader. You can buy it online or any auto parts store. Below my video is the description. Click on “SHOW MORE”. I list some of the product and tools I use.
At around 3:18, you take off the 2 bolts holding the caliper bracket. Now, there is nothing holding the rotor. You can just tap out the rotor. At 3:48, I point to where I tap out the rotor. Sorry about that. I should have recorded that part also.

This procedure was taught in school back when I was a young lad. LOL. Thanks for the comment.
Thank you very much for the great video, I just changed my pads & rotors and your video helped me tremendously.
Glad to have help!

Neat video ... perfectly shot clear and simple explanation.
thanks.

was your e-brake on?

@@oneundecided You do not need to replace the rotors every time you replace the pads. BUT you should resurface/machine the rotors.
@@OEMEangg Thank you. What if I would not do it?
@@oneundecided If you do not resurface, the rotors will be "out of round" or warped. A warped rotor can cause the steering to shake when you brake.
A 2016 Toyota Avalon break change should be pretty similar to this right?
Yeah, most brake jobs are similar.
Great video,thank you!👍
Do you have to perform a brake bedding-in procedure with these OEM pads/rotors?
No need for bedding. It is recommend to drive and brake smoothly for the first 100 mile or so. Avoid sudden stops. (BUT of course if it is an emergency, by all means, hit the brakes.)

Thanks….will do mine…..
Thank you excelent
What is the name of the first tool you are using in squeezing the caliper
And also where I can get it thank you

He’s asking about the c clamp, I know this is old but for anybody in the future coming across this it’s a c clamp
Where did u get the nice flip flops from ?
LOL... That guy is not me.
This is by far the best brake pad installation vid I have seen. Very informative and clear
@@SeorgeGoros Thanks for the comment. Some have told me I give too much info.
@@OEMEangg whoever complains about too much info when it comes to working on a car is a fool who shouldn’t be taken serious
@@SeorgeGoros Thanks for the comment. I really appreciate it.
Is it the same as 2017 Camry hybrid
I'm not 100% sure but I believe it is the same.
Where do you bought the brake rotors
You can buy them from Autozone. They also sell them at O'Reilly Auto Parts or Pepboys.
I use only Toyota OEM only
5 in c clamp?
No rust
Next time put some grease before rotors mounted , prevent rust developing…
Why would you skip when you put the pads on
Don’t see how take out rotors !! 🙄

Brake jobs and flip flops - what a oxymoron 🙄👎
