    You forgot to mention a VERY important thing that you MUST pump the brake pedal BEFORE you take it out on the road to push the caliper piston tight against the pads, I know someone who forgot to do this, no brakes!!! Smashed the car:(( Thanks for the video:)

      Long reply I know but he didn't forget. He said to have someone press the brake pedal so you can tighten to locating screw without the disc moving. This will do what you're saying.

    It also helps to spray the new disc with brake cleaner and wipe it before installing to get rid of all oils and dirt.

    Don't you check for lateral run out on the disc (with a dial gauge), to make sure it's mounted correctly, after fitting it, before fitting the wheel?

      ur video is very helpful, I have Nissan Micra, and needed to change front brake pads, and disks. Service said 180 euro. I said them f*ck off..... I bought myself online from France 2 brake dsiks just only for 16 euro and 10 euro pads set. Postage is 7 evro. So total is 33 euro instead 180 euro. Then watched ur video and changed myself, and it was so easy... it took me just an hour, and pass NCT...))).... thanks for the video.

      +Jessica Peck You could have used a centre punch hitting same at a 45 degree angle anti clockwise this would shock the screw unseizing same, or maybe a little bit of heat...failing 'partial' drilling out the screw clearance size release the disc hub off the assembly then ye spray release fluid on the exposed studs and use vise grips to extract same......what catches all of us is the taper/ countersinking on these screws.....[ you could get ripped off so take to another mechanic]

    Excellent how to video.
    If my intention is to just take the disc out, can I just remove the whole caliper carrier so that disc can be dismantled? (without touching the guide pins and all) my intention is to take the discs to a nearby Lathe, to get them skimmed (polished)

  • @simontrigg2154
    @simontrigg2154 3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Hmmm.Torque wrench settings are different to the Haynes manual and those 16mm carrier bolts are bastards to loosen.Disc rarely comes off that easily due to being rusted on the hub.On the near side pads there is a wear sensor which needs to be removed and re-fitted with care ,athough this is included with the BMW pads.Reality is different to the video but helpful to an extent.

    does opening the reservoir not introduce air into the system?

    Do you need to bleed the brakes after fitting front pads

    • @dreamtaker5197
      @dreamtaker5197 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      By compressing the calliper piston, you are just pushing some of the fluid back up the line to the reservoir(the reservoir was opened to allow this backflow) As no air entered the circuit (air doesn't get introduced from the surface of fluid in reservoir) therefore there are no air bubbles to bleed out.

    • @anytowni6141
      @anytowni6141 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      I hear some saying that you don't need to open the reservoir to push the piston back in it just let's air in? now you are saying to open it I just want to know which is the right way? when pushing the fluid back up?

    • @danr9949
      @danr9949 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@anytowni6141 The idea is that by opening the cap you prevent any pressure caused by pushing the piston back in from blowing the cap off. I have seen a number of people who always do this and others that don't . However, with those who have not I have never witnessed the pressure to cause the cap to blow off. But if you ever replace any pads I would advise taking the cap off as it is better to be safe than sorry. Don't leave the cap off for to long though as brake fluid is hygroscopic and will absorb the moisture out of the air meaning it will need replacing. Hope this helps answer your question :)

    1. You should of put the car in gear to stop the wheel turning.
    2. New brake disks come with a anti rust compound on them and need to be cleaned with petrol or brake clean otherwise when you brake the disks will smoke like Thomas the tank engine :P
