This video shows you how to install front brake pads and rotors on your 2012-2020 Ford Focus. 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:
2012 Ford Focus
2013 Ford Focus
2014 Ford Focus
2015 Ford Focus
2016 Ford Focus
2017 Ford Focus
2018 Ford Focus

This is literally the best video for doing this for this car. Hands down THE best, look no further.
My mechanic wanted a small fortune to do the front brakes. I'm not mechanically inclined, and wouldn't normally tackle this job, but this video made it so easy even I was able to get it done in a couple of hours. And it only cost me about a hundred bucks for the parts. Thank you so much! Fantastic video.
Excellent video showing a very professional approach. Lots of great tips. Gave me the confidence to tackle the job.
I appreciate the description of the tools used. Too many people just assume we know what we need.
You're certainly a unique combination between a professional technician and a great instructor. Great job!!
Wow dude. The most thorough automotive video I've ever watched. You've earned a new big fan.
Best practice to use new gloves while installing new pads and rotors. Well explained 🎉
Excellent detail, video, pace and tone. You are really good at this.
Very good demo, thank you I'm doing my girlfriends breaks tomorrow. I learned alot on that one, wasn't quite sure where to Greece, now I know. And the 7mm allen bolt needed to know that to. I think I got to go pick up one.
Thank you again,
James
Excellent Video. I have an up coming brake job on my Niece's Focus. This makes it simple. Complete with tool sizes & torque specs. Much appreciated.
Excellent video!. One of the best I have seen for brake replacement.
Thank you! Great video, to the point and you explained everything very well. 👌
Great video! very clear with valuable tips!
Nice to have the Torque specs!
100 foot pounds on the lug nut. I thought your sapose to get a breaker bar with the added cheater extention and stand on it, and do the one subtle jump on the end of the cheeter bar. Lol
Very nice job now Im going out to do my own break job. Thank you.
Hola, muy buen video... Consulta, que torque usas para caliper y los de atras?
Excellent video
Thanks for the great video. This would be the exact same for a 2016 Mk 3.5, right? I assume this video is the Mk3
Excellent video, good pace, nice expression and thorough cleaning and lubrication that I would have missed without watching that. I always remove the cap of the brake fluid before compressing the pistons, is that not necessary, is the reservoir the other side of the servo or something?
Spot on video
Do dealerships do the cleaning and lubricating?
7mm for the pins I just did my brakes on my 2012 ford focus
Presente cordial saludo desde Navoyork Sonora México
I bought ceramic brake pads and rotors for the front axel of my 2013 ford focus. Does anyone else have the same car but have drum brakes on rear axel
Like a pro 👍
What kind of grease are you using
Is anti seize absolutely necessary?
278mm or 300mm ? I am kind of confused with the disk diameter...
No brake pad hardware?
He says 21ft pounds for caliper bolts and 129ft pounds for the bracket. I found a website stating for a 2016 Ford focus caliper bolts 30ft pounds and 75 for bracket. Just saying if your watching this for a 2016
Would this still work for a mk4 focus?
+@Liam-kd2mx 2012-2020 Ford Focus
The bracket bolts are 18 mm not 19 mm
He also showed the socket it was 18mm, pretty obvious...
Do you need to bleed the brakes? I didn't see that part
+Stay Puft The brakes do not need to be bled unless the brake fluid has been exposed to air or has air bubbles in the system.
FYI its indeed NOT a 19mm lug nut. My god I hate American Junk cars! But good video non the less!
Thank you sir! You are a legend
+@FuzzyNipples-ix9px Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
