New Brake Rotor Set from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1ABFS04000
This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2006-2013 Chevy Impala. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.
This process should be similar on the following vehicles:
2006 Chevrolet Impala
2007 Chevrolet Impala
2008 Chevrolet Impala
2009 Chevrolet Impala
2010 Chevrolet Impala
2011 Chevrolet Impala
2012 Chevrolet Impala
2013 Chevrolet Impala

On my model of 2012 Impala, the caliper piston has to be rotated to be compressed. It requires a special tool (free to rent from auto parts store with deposit). I also learned that the back brake pad has a pin that has to slide into the piston and it has to be oriented properly. Hope that helps someone sane the extra 2 hours this job took because I had to figure that out the hard way.

I like the fact that they used a vehicle which is in typical rusted condition, instead of some pristine thing from southern California.

One of the best videos l have seen, very clear, good commentary and sharp pictures that actually show important steps!!

[@josevalenzuela5577]

Thank you sir. Your video is very well presented.

[@carsandchrome]

Thank you very much! Great tutorial video! Very well produced.

[@williamthompson5517]

Thanks for the video what is the spray your using

[@attila7092]

Is there anything else you can use to press the piston back into the caliper?

[@user-ve2up9pw2y]

Is it necessary to use that wrench that beeps for exact pressure??

[@randygilbert3753]

What size are the caliper bolts,I have 1 rounded off,

[@ezwa9979]

good video, I would’ve preferred what year that was(since 06-13 often vary about things, including torque settings, etc.) ✋😐

[@thomasoliphant8441]

Is there a difference between replacing right right and the left?

[@DavidHernandez-jv3zw]

Fi truuu!! ...Thanks for the very helpful and informative tutorial Bredren!! Jah love and Jah bless!! ..RasTafari!!😇😊👍💚💛❤️

[@RattyFlyer]

These are instructions are wrong they're not correct for a 2012. You need a special tool for the caliper on a 2012 because of the parking brake

[@OmarGonzalis]

As soon as I put the rotor, its locked up and not moving ( so the tire is locked up). I replaced shoe but didn't fix the problem
