Thanks for the video, I like doing stuff on my own cars as I know exactly what has been done. I have seen others doing brakes before and they didn't bother cleaning or greasing anything, just put the discs on and slotted the pads in. Looking to swap discs and pads on my 2018 master, I was surprised to see Brembo listed as an option although they are a lot more expensive. Couple of questions mate, did you put some copper grease on the back of the pads? and was the pins also greased? Not a criticism just a question
Yeah any grease that isn’t solvent based or abrasive (so not multipurpose grease or copper grease) is ok for the slide pins and I use red rubber grease or aqua slip grease against the ears of the caliper and the face of the piston so that it keeps the pre mainly clean on the backsides so they don’t build up too much brake dust
Nice job. Appreciate you doing this video. You said 190 Newton meters for the carrier bolts? I was struggling wether its 119 or 190. NM's, kept playing it over & over. What are the NM 's for the caliper bolts? And are the rear ones same as front for tightness? My owner manual said 172 NM for standard wheel lug bolts for 2014 Renault Master X62 . But have nothing in way of shop info or specs. Did you find a shop manual? I'd love to find info on where i could get one. I have one video of front accident repair. Many other videos to put up, but finding time to get them uploaded? But I intend to contribute more. Wouldn't the paint at beginning of video just burn off from heat of disk? I'm interested in that idea. As I think your right about rust damaging them. What is the name of what you sprayed on them?
Great video, Max. I've gotta do my front pads but struggling with the hex size as my 8mm hex looks way to small , am I missing something as you mention it's a hex 8 ?
Only criticism unless I couldn’t see it, did you have an axle stand under there just in case. I’ve had a jack fail before ,and when you re -fitted the caliper the top dust boot for the slider pin was missing 👍🏻
Well spotted! Yeah I always put a stand under the subframe which is quite far in on these - nicely spotted with the upper boot, the old one was ripped and spring inside had flown off somewhere so I sent it off without one for a few days until it arrived and I can assure you it’s all good now 😃 thanks for the comment!!
Because I run a garage I pay for access for main dealer information through e3 technical. Haynes manuals are probably the next best most easily accessible thing but I do find for most cars older than ten years you can find a main dealer workshop manual online somewhere for free to download if you're persistent enough
Thanks for the comment, well spotted Yes the boot was ripped and when I removed the pin it completely tore apart, I ordered and fitted a new boot later off camera 👍🏽 if you leave the pins without boots for more than a day or two they will seize and destroy your pads and discs
Well spotted, it was badly torn so I threw it away and put a new one on a few days later but since I already had the camera out I continued with making the video 😁
Very good info and well executed Max.I'm sure your arm muscles are getting bigger .All those high torque bolts!
Bigger muscles or worn out elbows!! Thanks for the comment 😃
Very helpful video ❤ I m really recommend this channel

A lot of people forget to grease it up. You could also spray that Tork 40 in with WD40 the day before. Do it will come loose a lot easier.
Great tip!
Thanks you sir for the good video and good job. I know tools now, I prepared tools and go job. I broke the two brake caliper bolts. 😢 💪👏👏
Glad I could help with the video and I hope you got it sorted!
@@maxautouk Thanks sir ! 🍺😃
💪🏽
Nice job.

Hi there they are 190nm yes! Very tight!!
Great video, Max. I've gotta do my front pads but struggling with the hex size as my 8mm hex looks way to small , am I missing something as you mention it's a hex 8 ?
It’s been so long since I’ve done front brakes on a Renault I honestly can’t recall… it is a large size though for sure

@@maxautouk glad you had a stand underneath 👍🏻. Yeah been in the trade 20 years gives u a bit of an eagle eye! Look forward to your next video 👍🏻
Brembo Calipers ? wow , nIce ..
I was surprised as well!
Where are you getting your torque setting values from?
I'd like a service manual for myself ideally.

New tyre next 😂😂good job
Thanks for the comment! Yep it has a new tyre too off camera 😁
Thank you!
You’re welcome thanks for the comment
Bonjour
Est ce que le système de freinage est le même que pour un master renault dti 2.8
Merci
My apologies I don't speak French
Hi whats the nm on the slider bolts please
A whopping 75nm!
Nice one cheers bud👍
Anytime
you forgot to fit the upper slide bolt seal
Good eye, it’s in the video description 👌🏽the boot was torn so I refitted it as is for a day or two while the new one was on order
Im not specialist..... but where did u lost guide rubber?

Thanks for the comment, well spotted

No rubber on top slider.
Will be seized in no time
Well spotted 😁👍🏽 the old one was badly damaged and I couldn’t get one the same day but it was sorted a day or so later, thanks for the comment
Shoddy job you lost the top slider rubber
Well spotted, it was badly torn so I threw it away and put a new one on a few days later but since I already had the camera out I continued with making the video 😁
