    Thank you fur making this video and all the torque specs. I did my FIRST brake pad change ever thanks to your video. I wasn’t sure I could do it but with your help, I did it! I have more confidence now. *Thank you!*

    Excellent video! Very glad I saw this before attempting the front brakes on my Acura for the first time.

    I hate working on cars, but this was quite helpful. One thing, trying to remove the 14mm caliper bolts, the inside nut just spins so I had to fight it with a wrench. I only had 3/8" sockets so using 3/4" galvanized pipe I had lying around helped give me leverage.

    There are hundreds of videos on how to do brakes, but I knew your video would be fun to watch. Great effects!

    Excellent video Sir. Helped me get familiar for a brake job I’m about to do for a friend. 2010 TSX 2.4. 👍🏼

    The screws are actually JIS #3 screws, not Phillips. Japanese Industrial Standard screws are different and a Phillips head screwdriver can strip them, so be careful. The impact screwdriver I bought came with a JIS#3 tip.

      I need to get a JIS screwdriver. Been on my wish list

    the 14 mm fasteners on my TSX just keep spinning and don't come out. What to do?

    If anyone is looking for a hanger like that red one he is using they sell those as Bird feeder holders at any hardware store usually green in color.

  • @flirtnwthdisaster2619

    You should always do front and rear brakes together on the tsx in my opinion however the rear calipers can be a pain in the ass if the piston is seized there is a tool that looks like a little cube that is used to turn the piston to back it off

    • @themechanic6117
      @themechanic6117  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yeah I have special tools for the rear brakes. They really can be a pain in the butt

    • @bannyvongphachanh8052
      @bannyvongphachanh8052 ปีที่แล้ว

      Man I did the rears and They still are even with the tool

    • @themechanic6117
      @themechanic6117  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Using the little cube tool is the more difficult way but it works. There's more "professional" tools that make the job easier

    • @bannyvongphachanh8052
      @bannyvongphachanh8052 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I use the the one that had the circles with 2 or 4 notches in them to twist them in by hand

    • @flirtnwthdisaster2619
      @flirtnwthdisaster2619 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@bannyvongphachanh8052 you aren't gonna have any luck turning it if it's seized. I didn't even fuck with it. I live on the coast so it's Nirmal to see issues like that and I was already installing new slotted and drilled rotors so I just ordered an all new brake assembly for the rear haven't had any issues and I have the peace of mind of knowing both sets of brakes are all new .

    I have a 2012 with 42k miles. There is no shimmy when braking. Can I get by with just pads?

    • @themechanic6117
      @themechanic6117  6 ปีที่แล้ว

      At 42k miles it seems like just pads should be fine but always inspect the rotors, if you see grooves or rust on the rotor you should replace them.
