AT LAST someone that knows how to make a GOOD VIDEO!!! So many people try to make a video and repeat themselves 10 times. Chris you were straight to the point with good concise information, didn't repeat yourself or say umm 20 times. THANY YOU AGAIN.
Normally I do repeat myself 20 to 30 times because I’m old and forget that I said anything even though I recorded it lol
Just remember to grease the glider pins is all, makes for even brake pad wair
Thank you so much Sir! You saved me ton of money. God bless you.
Thanks brother I just changed the brake pads on my 2018 Kia soul and watching your video step by step with super easy appreciate it
Thank you for sharing your expertise with us
Thank you sir. 2.25 hrs for all four is what I did. Only do em every few years so not bad 👍
That was a great video. So easy, thank you!!
"Chris LBS." Lol. I love it. Great sense of humor Chris. Thank you for the video.
Thanks for this video. Im going to replace the front pads on my 2019. Great video!
Glad it helped!
Dude, I've NEVER seen those spring clips that go in the brake holes. You solved a mystery for me today, thanks!
also without them the brakes on this model at least wear "strange" and it causes a less than that awesome pedal feeling. I tried another brand before this video was ever made and went back to the oem style as it was and is superior.
@@ChrisEdwardsRestoration that's interesting to hear. As with most products, it's best to use all parts to use the full design as intended, but I'm guessing a lot of folks have skipped putting the spring clips in having no idea where they go.
Same here. I did a full pad replacement on my '14 Soul Exclaim and: a) Those spring thingies were not in place when I pulled the wheels, and b) the replacement pads CarQuest pads (supposedly the "good ones") did not include those spring thingies. Also, at 52K miles the fittings for the clips were very rusty and it took what seemed forever to wirebrush them back to where the pad clips would fit properly.
Very helpful great video!!!!
Beautiful video thank you.
Nice job on the video.
This topic is a little different for you. Great info!
My older videos are auto repair. House repair and other stuff. I do many things
I appreciate you dearly old timer I am 23 and finally found some one with wisdom ❤
Love from Naples Florida 🎉
Damn. Im a old
Timer. Crap
Go to Goodwill & find couple of old yoga mats or tri-fold exercise mat for knees and backside.
Makes aches go away ! Also can take cat naps.
Lol
Thank you for seeking the truth
Missed clean and lube piston rubber lip.
Wow did not know, you know mechanics well. Is this procedure similar to Toyota auris hybrid as well
4:45 Would the reverse flow of brake fluid to the master cylinder possibly cause damage to the ABS pump? This did happen to me when I did brakes on my old 2006 Buick Regal.
Kia and Buick are two different animals. Kia’s abs is electronic
GREASE THE GLIDER PINS!
Also grease the clips that the pads slide on.
@@iflarnted Only at the bottom, not on top. Never on top, because it will attract dust.
I like a good bare bones no frills no thrills pad change. save your money, it's only a kia.
That's why I don't want nobody touch my cars. I know what I did ad how I did it.
I do it from the front with the floor jack and point it where the transmission mount hold and lift both from tires at a time. what you just said it lift the rear tire and is too dangerous. Mine is and thanks God has not those metal things to hold the pads. Don't leave the caliper on top of the Rotor, it could fall easy by any mistake and damage the brake hose. I don't recommend using a C-clam, there are plenty of other tools better out there.
----- If you going to do this job, please don't be Lazy and don't do a dirty job. Remove the Caliper holder, pads, discs, clean and lube everything. I have two cars and do every two years. Every 6 month I use Brake cleaner spray. There is so much good things to do at that moment, so please keep it nice . It's your car.
You do not need to remove the caliper holder that is just stupid
What brand of ceranic pad did you use?
I dont remember got them at napa
Where did you put the jack stand?
Under the main frame right behind the tire you will see a big fat bolt. Right there on that metal
Plate
What side does the break sensor go on
You mean the squeal tab? They always go on the inboard pads
How do I find out what size I need to remove the lug nuts?
like the socket size?? 19mm for mine but i have a + model with the 19" wheels
nice video .. well was the brake pads so worn? It didnt look that .. =) Great video tho..
Not really just 3 years old. New ones are thicker and work as good as new. I noticed more stopping power required to get her slowed down. New ones just a touch and bam.
@@ChrisEdwardsRestoration okey well it’s really nice video and good breaks can be with life or death so good work ;)
Guys, do not use chrome sockets with an impact gun! They will explode soon enough, stay safe.
Do we have to bleed the lines changing pads
Also, shouldn't you open the bleeder valve when you push the piston back
No just use a c clamp to squish it back in
@ChrisEdwardsRestoration so it isn't necessary to open the bleeder valve while pushing the piston back
@@yycforlife5048 no dont do that you will get air in the system and screw up the entire brake system. Use a c clamp like i showed it pushes the fluid back into the master cylinder
@ChrisEdwardsRestoration ok, but the resovair cap should be losen?
The man failed to tell you, have your rotors turned! Your rotors will have hot spots on them and eventually cause overheating and warping to your rotors. Never just slap on the pads on any vehicle creates warping and steering wheel shake
not always. i guess it depends on your driving style and usage.
If they weren't doing all that before the change, they likey won't after. KIA rotors may not be thick enough after wearing out a set of pads to turn anyway.
Hardly anyone turns rotors when you can buy new ones so cheaply theses days. I’ve done dozens of pad replacements without changing or turning rotors and NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES! Not to say someone (or me) won’t ever have problems but so far so good…even did a new set of front pads on a Kia Soul today and no issues.
Drilled and slotted, you're ok- but dude is right, best to put em on a lathe first 👍👍
@jsioux056 well at the time I made this video there was no need for that because my rotors are still brand new
