    Good evening Bob. We don't have any type of vehicle inspection sticker or expiry dates in my area. Your brakes look pretty good and very clean. Doesn't look like you drive on any dirt / gravel roads. Some of the things I do when servicing my vehicles brakes (Spring and Fall) is clean all parts thoroughly. Replace any worn-out part. Apply Never Seez / Anti-seize to the surface of the hub of the rotor / disc that makes contact with other metals. Clean the new rotor / disc with brake cleaner. Lubricate the caliper guide pins / sliders. Lighty sand brake pads. Apply light amount of grease on rear of pads, clips and caliper where back of pads make conta, etc. I am on dirt roads a lot and our winters have a lot of salt on the roads so I service my brakes twice a year. Have a good one!

      I did grease the caliper guide pins and I cleaned the new rotors front and back with brake cleaner. That was done off camera. I also lubricated the sliders (around the 6:30 mark). I used a wire brush on a lot of the parts again off camera. Salt is used to treat our roads also. They also spray a liquid on the roads to per-treat them under certain conditions. I try to get my car's under carriage washed once a week during the winter. I like the idea of grease on the backing plate. The front brakes were not as bad as the rear brakes. The rear brakes were starting to hit the clip that grinds. I ordered the parts last fall and finally got around to putting them on the car. I'm glade that job is done. Thank you for sharing your tips. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

    👷🏻‍♂️Good job replacing the brakes and rotors! You now have confidence in your vehicle’s braking system and that’s important!

      The new brakes are working great. The best thing is they are quiet. I can't stand squeaky brakes. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

    Great to have all those mechanic skills and still be able to use them. I just buy a new vehicle when it wears out.

      I grew up swinging hammers and turning wrenches. A new vehicle would be nice. Some of the problems with TH-cam is people bad mouth different manufacturers. It's a shame we can't sort the chaff from the grain. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

      TY Larry. It's not as easy to do the job after 45 years. I sure wish I had a lift to get the car up a little higher for me. But, I work with what I have and take my time to see the job through. I hope you all are doing well. The temps are climbing for sure. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

      Good day Joseph. It was a lot easier when I was 16. LOL Servicing the rear brakes was a lot more challenging. There is a control are that must be removed to get to the carrier and caliper bolts. And working on my hands and knees was a bit of a challenge. Thanks for watching and commenting.

    Hi Bota Bob! Mrs. Betty has a KIA. She loves it. I drive the FREE F-150….lol

    • @botabob
      @botabob หลายเดือนก่อน

      My KIA is nice. But the favorite car I ever owned was my 1999 Mercury Sable. I bought it used with 60,000 miles and drove it until 199,000 miles. The transmission was acting funny and I did not want to break down on the highway. I replaced it with this fine KIA back in 2013. So, I've had this car for 11 years now.

      Kenny, I haven't done the brake fluid yet. Ever since it warmed up, I've been cutting grass and watching it rain. LOL Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

      Brake fluid is a hydrophilic liquid. It absorbs water and it is said to be detrimental to the braking system. I should have done this at the 100K mile mark, but I didn't. So, I will try and get that done soon. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

    Lookin good Bob! Interesting you need an inspection each year? Nothing like that here. Maybe a bit of a cash grab? But I guess it also keeps junkers off the road. Those are going to be nice and smooooooth. Cheers, Mike.

    • @botabob
      @botabob หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Good day Mike. When I was 16 and got my first car the state safety inspections were performed every 6 months. There was a push recently to eliminate the safety inspection but I think it fell through the cracks at the State House. LOL In addition to the safety inspection, people who live in more densely populated counties of the state require an annual emissions test. It cost me $100 to drive get my state inspections and stickers. They hook the scan tool up to the car for the emissions test. Check all the lights, tires, brakes, wipers and exhaust. They also check for holes in the body and floor pans. Yes, basically it is designed to keep the roads clear of rolling rust buckets. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers

    Too funny Bob, I just recorded me doing the front bakes on our mini van a couple of days ago. I plan on making an episode with it as well.........Your brakes and underneath of the car is very clean compared to our 2010 van and any vehicle here on the northern coast..........You wasted $$$$$ changing those rotors for sure. I will say that most mechanics will tell you that you should never open the brake resovoir only to top up if needed.........unless you break a line it will never need to be opened........there is enough fluid in there to compensate for brake wear and no need to open pushing back the caliper piston........the main reason for not opening the resivoir is that brake fluid absorbs moisture from the air...........and that is one of the key characteristics of brake fluid that gives it it's high boiling point......on older vehicles the fluid will tend to get dark from use over time...........a change of fluid for a 10, 15 or 20yr old vehicle may not be a bad idea...........for your fairly new car there you would be wasting time, money and risking on having some trouble with it..............if it's not broke.......don't fix it Bob.............my two cents worth. Great job on the brake replacement!

    • @botabob
      @botabob หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      I know the feeling about making a video about the same topic. Last year that happened to me regularly. LOL Let's face it, we are all doing the same things. However, we can learn from watching others, well at least I can. I would always cut my grass from the outside in blowing my clippings to the middle. Well, I watched one TH-camr who would cut starting in the middle and then blowing the clippings out. It works a lot better when grass is thick. my car is 12 years old now. LOL I think it looks pretty good for the age. That was the first set of pads at 183K miles. When you get a nice day, turn on your camera and do that brake job. I will watch it. Thanks for watching and commenting. Enjoy the Journey - Cheers
