@@nazarettos6987 I was hoping to get a response noting if you agree. Compressing the piston pushes old fluid back up into the system. It can also damage the ABS. Opening the bleed valve beforehand also lets you know the caliper is ok and the valve will open when it’s time to bleed the brakes. As so you don’t waste your time by having to replace it after you reinstall everything.
@@LuisPerez-cx5st the Toyota procedure is ok. Only issue like I mention is to open the bleed valve before retracting the piston. You don’t want old fluid pushed back into the system or possibly damaging the abs system. I removed the pistons and replaced the boot and seal on each piston. Easy to do plus you can ck the piston jack shaft threads. Lousy system in general. The boot installation is assisted by having a seal driver. Rock Auto has the kits for 8 dollars each. I put new caliper bolts too. Factory bolts had no loc tite and the threads were badly rusted and took a 1/4 turn before I removed them. The right ft caliper bolts moved excessively and this was the first reline at 40,000 miles. So all were at factory installation settings. Also found left side pad tension springs missing. Must of been a Friday built car.
I just changed mines and I’m getting a weird noise after pressing the brakes a second time before a full stop. Unsure what it is but will remove and inspect tomorrow.
@@gregoriojuarez1579 I think so, Toyota makes it easy. You can also put rear brakes in service mode by applying positive and negative cable 12v power and the piston is gonna retract.
Be aware that the front pad part number fits about 90% of 2019-present Rav4s. For the limited trim level which have a larger front rotor, it will take a different part number for the front pads.
@@nazarettos6987 thanks! After watching your video, I didn't see any separation into inner and outer pads, nor did I notice any difference between inner and outer pads?
@Nazaretoos, thanks for the great instruction.. I have a question, Do you open the master cylinder resevoir(brake fluid) when your compress the brake calipers(piston) back to put in new pads during a brake pad replacement? or no need to do that step?
Great work, I was hoping also you will do the rotors since normally you want to replace the brakes and rotors at the same time. Since I only have 22k on my 2020 Rav4 I will wait until I hit 35-40k to replace them.
I don’t have pulsation when braking, car drives straight and my rotors are in great condition so i decided to leave them because these are OEM Toyota rotors.
you only replace rotors if they are pulsating or really thin. otherwise there is no point. don't be suckered into replacing them. rotors should last easily over 80k miles under regular driving conditions.
Thanks for the prompt reply, sir. When I inspect my front brakes on the rav4 this morning, the 2 caliper pins resist coming out as I try to pull it. Am i suppose to wiggle it harder to get it out or how to do it safely w/o damaging the boots? Thanks again Dr. 😊 for help.
Thank you for taking the time to make this video. Your video is clear and thorough. Greatly appreciated.👌
Thanks so much my rav4 2020 with key 🔑 was definitely difficult to get service mode But I did it, I'm sure I skipped a step the first time I tried it.
May GOD BLESS ABUNDANTLY FOR MAKING THIS VIDEO.😊
Thank you so much for positivity. You can tackle this project yourself:-)
Thank you for another great clear how to do video 👍.
Great, thorough, instructive video. Thanks.
Very helpful, I am going to do myself, thanks!
@@Lee-uc3vy make sure to release automatic e-brake and put it in service mode,very important only than you can push piston back. Very important
I would open the bleed fitting on the caliper before compressing the piston. This preserves the hydraulic piston and seals in the system.
@@joec2174 thanks

Worked perfectly. Thanks for the electronic brake procedures!
@@JohnPhillips-qw4db you 🙏 welcome

Do you believe, that the same process for the rear breaks of a 2019 Camry would be the same?

Good video, but what are the two holes in the top of the New brake pads for? thx Datra
some brake pads have this thin metal spring that fits in there to help separate pads.
Why you pushing the piston inside??
@@JacobAlexander1000 thats how you do it, how do you suppose to put new brake pads in???
@@nazarettos6987 thank you for the video and replay.
@ after you retract motor, you have to push piston back because new brakes are thick and when you try to put caliper back on it will not fit.
@@nazarettos6987 ok thank u
Your amazing, thank you for this 😎
Is this the same as epb interlock deactivated?
@@danielhudson9470 epb is electronic parking brake. Yes these pads will work for Rav4
Tk . Sir helping us out 😀

Do the brake pads on each wheel of the Toyota RAV4 from 2019 to 2024 have inner and outer pads? thanks!
@@pythonprogramlike4547 absolutely yes

Yes i did, just so that brake fluid can expand. But i did not have issues with brake fluid coming out of the reservoir
Good diy man, thanks for taking the time to film
Can a guy use anti seize instead of brake lube?
@@nombr do not use anti seize, use caliper grease.
Great work thanks

You can have them re-surface once. The shop near me charge $10.00 each.
You don’t have to install the shims on the front pads? Just notice now😮
yes you do,

Gracias 🙏✌️
I wish I lived in an area with no rust and I didn't have to take 30 minutes per wheel to clean and grind the bridges from rust.
🔥👍
Thanks so much!!
These Bosch are quite smooth and powerful stopping
Thank you very much 😎👌
