  • This car is a 2017 Honda Civic 1.5 turbo EX-T and has 96,000 miles.
    I bought each rotor from rock auto for $40 each: Centric 120.40036 Semi-Coated
    I used a 12mm and 17mm sockets.
    The screw to hold the rotor in place was stuck and had to drill it out.

    Can't tell you how many videos i've watched doing this in preparation for my own brake job, and I gotta say, this was the easiest to understand and absorb - I hope you do one on the rear brakes as well!

    At 1:42, what we used to call "silver Loc Tite." Good stuff. An old mechanic I worked with said every fastener should have Loctite or anti seize.

    This is applicable to my 2021 Civic Type R as well, couldn’t find a good video to show how to do the rotors (only the pads). Once you take the caliper off, it’s basically the same process. Thank you!

      You are welcome. I bet the rotor is different… ventilated, etc. right? Type R is a different beautiful beast. Enjoy it!

      Oh… in that video I couldn’t remove the rotor retaining screw so I ended up drilling it.
      In this other video I used another technique to loosen it up. In addition, tap the screw with something flat a few times.

      @@certi2xx390 Good. I bought the rotors at RockAuto. I got the pads from autozone because you can keep replacing them under their lifetime warranty. They actually tell you these. You pay for the pads just the first time. Let’s say in two years when you have to replace them again, you buy them again but bring the old ones in the box to have the money returned to your card.

    How many mile you replacements first time oem brake pad

    • @gotitdone
      @gotitdone  Před 8 měsíci

      Thanks for asking.
      It is not really a matter of miles. It is a matter of how used the brake pads are, which is directly related to the way of driving (easy or aggressive braking). If you drive a lot on highways and mostly coast without braking that much then the pads will last 20k or 30k miles or 2/3 years.
      Check the first two minutes of this video where I replace the rear brake pads on my Honda Odyssey 2013: czcams.com/video/-W-6kXLnxt0/video.htmlsi=jijctFJ8SUQcR8Q9
      You will see a comparison of old and new pads. And also explain why it is important to grease the sliding pins. Hope this all helps.

    • @gotitdone
      @gotitdone  Před 9 měsíci +2

      What you mention is for the rear brakes since it has the electronic parking brake (EPB) but it is not a big deal. The civic doesn’t have a maintenance mode. You simply have to remove the small motor for the EPB and screw the piston back.
