    Hi Jim - good job - before the new rotors are to be put on put a little never seize on the wheel hub to prevent rust and a sticky rotor also apply a small dab of never seize on the rotor screws that will make them come off easy next time with out being stripped .

    @angelhayes2539 6 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have a question, I've heard that compressing the piston when you have older brake fluid can push that into the ABS and damage it. So if I plan on replacing front pads and rotors myself, should I have the brake fluid flushed before? I was planning on taking it somewhere to have it flushed after I changed the pads and rotors because I don't feel comfortable flushing it myself, but now I'm afraid I might damage the ABS system. Btw your video was great and it made me feel much more comfortable with changing my own pads and rotors to save some money!

      I usually remove some fluid with a turkey baster (only used in the garage now LOL) and shove a no lint rag inside the reservoir. That keeps it from dripping on any thing under the hood.

  • @trusso11783
    @trusso11783 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    This channel is great. Thanks. I’m not a mechanic but I am going to take a shot at replacing my front rotors and brakes. They were ok but I didn’t use my Santa Fe much these past two years. Maybe 10 times each tear. Now, my front left brake makes a loud crunching sound when I press the brake pedal. Could there be something else wrong. My friend does not think it’s the caliper because it only happens when I brake and it isn’t frozen or locking. I just don’t want to be too surprised when I remove everything. Is there anything I should be looking for?

  • @CrashCarson14
    @CrashCarson14 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Really good video. Thanks. I’m most worried about those Phillips head screws that hold the rotor in. I’ll end up stripping those, I wonder if you can buy replacements that have a hex key head. Always looks easier until I get started and realize everything is stuck on tight.

    Followed your instructions but in a 2011 Santa Fe. Worked great. The only thing is that when I finished, my anti lock brakes light is pinned on. Any ideas. Probably not a coincidence so I must have done something wrong. Thanks.

    • @jimthecarguy

    Hi Jim, great job and easy to follow along. This is essentially how I did the fronts on our Sonata but I found that one of the slide pins was rather tight even after cleaning it and applying new grease. How do you handle something like this? It was only one of the pins, the other had a flat side that I think provided some room for the grease and air to escape.

    • @jimthecarguy
      @jimthecarguy  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If the pins are still tight after you lube them you may have to change the caliper and bracket.

    • @jimthecarguy

      S J Make sure the screws are drilled out flat. If they stick up a little bit it will cause the rotors to wobble.

    Hi Jim, I tried doing this yesterday with miserable results. You mention that there are two bolts. A 14mm & a 17mm. Well, I got the 14mm loose without a problem, but the 17mm doesn't exist. I have a Sonata 2011 so I expected that this would be the perfect video for me. However the "17mm" turns out to be a star, or torx. I went to the auto parts store and bought a set of the appropriate sockets and came back and learned that the larges size in the pack is an E20, which is too small I took them back and was told that they don't carry anything larger. I tried another auto parts store and then on to Harbor Freight. No one has anything that will fit this star head. Have you run into this before? Do you have any suggestions before I have to put everything back together and take the car and the parts that I bought with my tail between my legs and go to a local garage?

    When you push the piston in...... don't you remove the master cylinder cap ? After the job is done....and you have pump the brake pedal.....don't you top up the brake fluid level in the master culinder?

    • @jimthecarguy
      @jimthecarguy  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      To answer all your question
      1. /. You don't have to open the master cylinder unless it is over filled
      2 /. Yes you have to pump the pedal to reset the piston on the caliper
      3 / No you don't have to top off the master cylinder unless you lost fluid during the brake job
