- Changing the front and rear brake pads on a 2019 Hyundai Santa Fe
Tightening torque:
Wheel lug nut :
79 ~94 lb-ft
Caliper assembly to knuckle :
78.5 ~ 98.1 N.m (57.9 ~ 72.3 lb-ft)
Guide rod bolt (into caliper body) :
21.6 ~ 31.4 N.m (15.9 ~ 23.1 lb-ft)
At 1:15, don't really need to remove the brackets, just press down on the 'stopper' or 'tab' and the pad will slide out. You can press down on the tab with a small screwdriver and gently pry the pad outward with another screwdriver. Pressing down the tab on the inner side is tricky but I was able to do it.
You are absolutely right! It just make it easier to clean when the bracket is removed but it is not necessary.
Yep just did my 2020 Sante Fe last night and just push the tabs gently and off the pads come.Also those 17mm bolts need loctite on em the same way they should’ve came from factory👍
You did a great job on this video. Thank you for explaining the entire process. A few months ago I had my front brakes done but the tire shop said they couldn't do the rear brakes because I needed a $10,000 computer. I've had quotes as high as $500 to do the rear brakes alone. After watching your video, I'm going to tackle this myself.
Thanks for showing the front and back. Appreciate you posting this video.
Hope it helped! Let me know if you have any questions.
I love you random dude from UA-cam. You just save me like $600❤
Why didn’t you show the method used for removing the caliper bolts?
Wdym when you said do not forgot to reconnect your e brake
Can you do or have done s video on Jacking the car up and using jack stands. I'm always paranoid the car is to fall.
Are front and back pads always changed at the same time? Or just depends on which is worn out more?
It depends on which is worn out more. Generally the rear brakes will ware out faster than the front because they are smaller. But you also have to make sure all the pads are waring out evenly on each side. Even if you have 60% left on your pads but they are unevenly warn, you'll have to change them and look into why they are unevenly warn. Could just be the slider pins and have to be lubricated, or it could be the caliper that's seized. As long as you clean everything out, get everything lubricated and make sure everything is sliding smoothly, everything should continue to work properly.
Good video. Where did you get the brake pads and what was the cost?
I got the pads from RockAuto. They're raybestos element3, and it cost me about $90US ($125CA) for front and rear.
I replaced all my break pads on my 2020 Santa Fe. My rear right rotor gets very hot now that I have noticed. The three other wheels are fine and are not over heating. I removed the caliper and re checked my work but cannot figure out what the cause is.
Sorry for the late reply. I would check to make sure the pads are able to slide easily in the bracket and make sure nothing is preventing them from moving back off the disc when you let off the brakes. Sometimes there's rust that builds up under the metal bracket that prevents the pads from sliding properly
Thank you very much for this video! Quick question. Do I need to worry about the torque settings on any of those bolts? If yes, can you share the settings, please? Thanks!

@@franksdiygarage You are awesome! Thx!
@@franksdiygarage Hi Frank, one more question (dang, I thought I was done ;-) Do you know what is the acceptable thickness of the rotors before they need to be replaced?
@@s2kvozac very good questions. It's not information people ask about very often but very important to know.
Front brake disc thickness
Standard : 28 mm (1.10 in)
Service limit : 26 mm (1.02 in)
Rear Brake disc thickness
Standard: 11 mm (0.43 in)
Service limit: 9.4 mm (0.37 in)
Front Pad thickness
Standard value: 11 mm (0.43 in)
Service limit: 2.0 mm (0.0787 in)
Rear Pad thickness
Standard value: 10 mm (0.393 in)
Service limit: 2.0 mm (0.0787 in)
@@franksdiygarage Greatly appreciated!
Can you please specify clockwise or counterclockwise when compressing the brake caliper
For the front caliper, no need to turn the piston, just an even pressure will do.
For the rear caliper, you have to turn clockwise to bring the piston in. It will be hard to turn at first but it gets easier as the pison compresses.
how to put the rear brake in service mode ?
You can do that electronically with a scanning tool that has EPB reset/service tool or manually with a hex key this would need a bit more extra work.
Resovior cap on or off?
I kept my reservoir cap on. I never added any brake fluid to this vehicle so I didn't have any problems or overflow. Once all the brakes were done, pumped and the pistons were back in position, the fluids were back at the normal level.
But if you do open your reservoir cap, be sure to keep the cap on the hole to prevent any dust or debris from getting into the reservoir tank.
So I have a question my mechanic change my brakes on my 2019 Santa Fe Limited he was telling me that since it’s electronic breaks he needs to use his computer for the calipers to close like you use the clamp he said if you don’t use the computer you could burn the motor something like that is that true?
If you bring your car to a garage or to the dealer, they will use a computer to communicate with the ECU to put the electronic parking brake (EPB) into service mode, but these computers can be quite pricey for a DIYer. What this does is completely releases the EPB and disables the actuator. The reason for this is because these vehicles are capable of engaging the EPB if it detects an incline, even if the car is turned off. The way this could cause damage to the actuator is if it engages while the caliper is off the disk, it will push the piston all the way out and hyper extend, or if it engages while you're pushing the piston back into the caliper, it will force the motor and can cause damage.
Now that being said, there are numerous ways to make sure the EPB does not engage. The way I did it on my video is by making sure the EPB is released and unplugging the actuator on the caliper, always making sure that the EPB did not engage. This way does make it a little harder to twist the piston back.
Another way to do it is to remove the actuator from the caliper. There are 2 torx screws that hold the actuator motor to the caliper. Once the motor is off, you could use a torx from behind the piston to bring the piston back into the caliper. This is the easier way to bring the piston in but those torx screws can be very hard to get out because of the rust and road grime that can get built up over time, and if you strip one of these, you'll most likely have to replace the caliper.
