You're an awesome gentleman with kind heart. Your tutorial is as neat and excellent as your video recording. I'm not sure how you've managed to shoot this clip so closed yet at the same time working and explaining every bits in crystal clear details. Even a novice would follow your teaching and get everything right. Thank you so much brother.
Thank you 🙏
This is how I enjoy videos. Great instructions, great tips, straight to the point. No playing around wasting my time trying be funny. Well done! Thanks.
+nick navedo thank you sir, thanks for watching.
I'm from Mexico and was looking for specifics like the big nut size (30mm) and its torque (90lbs). You explain everything well and keep it simple! Great job!
Great video. I've been doing brakes for 30+ years. The only suggestion I have is to use a RUBBER MALLET on the centre hub, to make sure it doesn't get dented. Regarding torquing the wheel nuts, the Nissan Micra is 83 ft/lbs, and please make sure you RETORQUE the wheel nuts after 50-100 km.
Great idea, I have a rubber mallet...why didn't I think of That? Lol. Thank you for the comment
You're a saint man, I'm literally doing this job today on the same year and model. Gonna be following this video like a textbook haha. Thank you for including the part number to that bearing cap too! The shop I went to last time absolutely mangled both caps trying to get them off. Looks like they brought their dog in to bite them off my car lol
PSA : rear drum brakes are no joke. I recommend you outsource this job that is generally due at 90K for hard drivers & 125K for gentle drivers. I studied several UA-cam videos. I downloaded the service manual. I bought specialty drum brake tools. I was just going to clean & regrease where the pads contact the back plate. Seemed like a straightforward procedure with my UA-cam knowledge & couple pages of service manual exploded PDF's. What took 5 minutes on a UA-cam toke over an hour on one drum for me ( I've done struts, front brakes, radiator swaps, alternator swaps before, so I'm not a beginner)
I studied the picture I took of the ," before ."
I after struggling for an hour, I finally reassembled and doubled checked my assembly.
Well after taking a short test drive, and not having resistance from my console area parking brake handle, I open the drum again. Turns out, in my 10+ attempts at finessing the springs and position of pads & levers, I discovered that somehow the parking brake cable came off from it's attachment point and got sheared off.
So now I created a $350 premature rear brake job for myself.
Lesson learned .
I hear you, brakes are nothing to play around with. If you're not comfortable there's nothing wrong with paying someone who knows what they're doing.
In the process of purchasing 2016 versa note sv. Test drove it and it made some weird noises when braking, glad I found your video to remedy this situation. Thanks bud!
Its been a good little car to me. I hope you get the problem fixed. Check out my other versa videos
Great video, u just helped me save $300. thank God for people like u.
Thanks for watching 👍check out my other versa videos
Thank you SO MUCH for showing how the adjuster works!!! I have a 2015 Micra and mine is seized up and will not turn. I looked at it for an hour trying to figure out how it was supposed to turn. Now I know. I will have to take the adjuster apart, or replace it. Thanks again for another awesome video
Im glad my video helped. Good luck
A brake service such as this (disassembly, cleaning & adjusting) is often overlooked / not done / not wanted by customers. It can keep things quiet and you can usually spot things (like a missing rotor) that need attention before they affect other brake components.
I think that this video is so very helpful and the addition of the part numbers is most helpful too! Thanks for the vid!
You're welcome.thanks for watching
Oh another tip:
When you initially try to remove the brake drum, it may be very tight. Just temporarily refit the road wheel with two studs and use the extra leverage on tire, to make hub removal easy.
Thank you for this. Doing mine tomorrow. Did the second car today.
for nissan versa note the torque of the rear axle nut is 129-133 -177 -183-247 ft/lbs from different sources, this is very important, find a good source on the torque, other than that, an excellent video
What I've learned...
The hub nut and cap are considered single use only by Nissan... I used a putty knife to wedge one loose (after putting a hole in the other). I used black RTV to seal the puncture. I reused the covers.
I didn't adjust the drums well enough and the parking brake doesn't hold well. I've got a neurological condition, my adjustments weren't good. The instruction is to spin it hard and it should only do one rotation before stopping.
I'll use blue Loctite on the 30mm hub bolt (out of Loctite's recommended size for use) and reuse the bolt as I've got to open it all back up again and start tightening that adjustable thing with the star wheel again.
The hub nut on the 2015 torque is *177 ft lbs*! There are free images of the manual out there but I'm afraid to post the links because of all the Google and UA-cam automated strike stuff..
The bleeder valve on the rear is 7mm!!! The front is 11mm if I recall correctly. Stupid a** design! On top of all that it needs to be a thin profile 7 mm. Unlike the one in the front that you can use a standard thickness wrench, this stupid bleeder valve is like for a Barbie car. Miniature.
In exchanging the brake fluid, I tried to use a vacuum pump alone but had the best success with a combination of pedal pumping and vacuum.
Because the brake fluid reservoir is very hard to get to, I would highly recommend the heavy use of newspaper around the right side of the engine compartment so that no brake fluid drips on something sensitive or on the car's exterior. Might I add that the brake fluid reservoir is also much more opaque than, say a Toyota. It is much harder to tell the level even with illumination from behind. At least with clean fluid.
Nissan's design of the rear hub and drum brake system is absolute garbage! I have done tons of drum brakes although the car is in trucks were from the 1990s. This has got to take the cake for the worst engineering. I think they hired Yugoslavian refugees to design it... Sorry, that's an insult to the people that made the Yugo. An engineering monument compared to the Versa Note.
Don't forget to Google your year make and model to see if you've been included in the class action lawsuits over the Jatco transmission. Nissan screwed themselves out of at least three car sales from my family alone. If the Note was a better built car, we would be buying more of them. Especially with younger drivers, I would prefer that they drive something new, yet cheaper than say a Prius...
Awesome video! I watched a few to figure out what I was doing and yours is the one that makes the most sense. :)
Thank you
nic, good vidio, I would put the big spring in first when going back together, than you can put small spring in with out using free driver, also the dust cap comes off better if you use driver between lip and cap and work your way around cap.once when cap gets put back on use small dab of rtv sealer to keep moister out of axle nut area.
Thanks for the tips, my cap seemed to be stuck. I tried that method before I started recording. 👍
I graduated from your front break video, I was afraid of the rear breaks until now thanks.
Lol that's the first time I seen someone say graduated 😂 great work.glad I could help
Same here, thanks for the video, is your versa has the manual or automatic, how is it so far? Did u have any issues with it?
Its a manual and so far so good but i rarely drive it. Its a 2015 with 31k miles on it
@@themechanic6117 thanks for the info
I drive a manual 2015 Nissan Micra S 1.6L. About 85,000Km plus mileage The emergency brake lever is getting too high when I pull it up after parking the car. Therefore, it is probably time to replace the rear brake shoes. Replaced the front brake pads summer time last year but now, it is making a metal screeching noise only when I turn right. When I replaced the original front brake pads, the inside surface of the disk brake or brake rotor was rusty on some area and shiny on some area. The outside surface on both left and right disk brakes were shiny. So, I think the rotors need to be replaced plus new front brake pads.
Your video is the best out there so far when replacing the rear brake shoes:
1. Torque specification is 90 lb ft for the rear hub nut and is 85 lb ft for the wheel lug nuts;
2. 6-point re-lubrication contact area using Ceramic Extreme;
3. Brake cleaner to clean the inside of the rear backing plate;
4. Safety first: use a jack to secure the car from moving, and tire chuck on the front wheel.
I'm a bit embarrass to ask but is it okay to use a Nissan Versa Note hub nut and wheel lug nut torque specs to a Micra.
Thx much
From what i hear the micra and note are the same car so the torque specs should be fine.
110123 Wed sorry late reply but never too late. Thx so much. @@themechanic6117
Great video, taking the drums off my 2016 Note tomorrow, subscribed
Thank you
Great video, thorough step by step instructions with great tips and specs. Thanks, your video really do help!
+Alan jr thank you for watching and commenting
Hey, I have been reading online about the torque specification for the 30mm bolt and I read that it’s supposed to be somewhere around 177-220lb. You torqued it to 90lb. Can you confirm which is correct . There is a huge difference between what you used and what I read online . Do you have a manual ? I have a 2015 Nissan Versa Note SL. Thanks for your help!
I read the same for a Nissan Versa, i dont want my wheel to come off
Just in time brother, thanks!
+Anthony Shanks you're welcome
I sincerely appreciate you sir. I clearly understood you.
Thank you. I appreciate the comment 🙏
Excellent videos, my friend. Please keep them coming.
Thank you and thanks for watching 👍
Omg I did the Sentra drums today and that ebrake cable is a C U N T.
Yeah drums suck
Great video, you did a good job! Very useful! Thank you
You're welcome
Best rear brake video I've ever seen. Subscribed and liked!!
Thank you for the comment, I appreciate you watching 👍😊
Thanks you so much i have a 2012 Nissan Note
You're welcome
Good job. Very clear instructions, Thank you. -- Earle
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
Thank you , this really helped me out big time , great video great explanation , brilliant
You're welcome. Thank you for watching
Thank you very much.
Just what I needed! Thanks for the great video!
You're welcome. Thanks for watching
Oh, and wire brush/scape away, as much as possible, of the rust ring, formed on the Drum inner face, outer edge.
This enables the drum to be removed/replaced easily, without this rusty edge hanging up on the brake shoes
Nice video, very well said. Good job. God bless.
Thanks for the comment
You work as professional safety first i like your job
Thank you
Because of your great 👍 video I just subscribed to your channel
Thank you 🙏 for the great instructor work.
Thank you. I appreciate the support 👍
Hi friend. tell me nissan note 2016 year, how to translate consumption in miles to kilometers on the dashboard, and temperature from faringates in Celsius ??
Holy smokes! You make it look easy 😀
It is easy compared to other drum brakes out there.some are horrible to do
Your videos are great man, you really show every detail even the jack points. Would you agree that the process would be very similar on the sedan?
Yes they're similar 👍and thank you
Have you changed the drums on these yet? I had to swap out a bearing and the drums were heavily scored. Those need to be replaced but I'm wondering if the ABS tone ring can be reused since it's marked as "don't reuse" in the factory service manual. Those are dealership only parts and about $100 each so I'm trying to avoid buying them.
Graciasss
Thanks for great video. I did as shown but I lost my parking break, its not engaging.
Id take it apart and make sure everything is correct. Did you adjust the shoes until theyre just touching the drum?
Excellent video , Thankyou
Thanks for watching
Nice video, Thanks
Thank you
Great video, thanks for the tips ..
You're welcome
This was really useful. I’m replacing the drum on my Nissan Note 2006. Thank you.
You're welcome and thanks for watching 👍
Also works for Renault Modus, there are same rear breaks, thanks Man!
Good to know.thanks for watching
Nice clip 👍 thanks
Thanks for watching
Thanks fo a very good Video, BUT I wish to point out the following improvements, to make reassembly so much easier:
1.... To remove and replace the Parking Brake Cable, compress the outer 'spring' of the cable to expose the inner, which can be removed/replaced on the brake shoe lever end. You can use you fingers to compress the outer 'spring'.
2. On replacement of the Brake Shoes, your method of engaging the bottom short spring first, does not work.
The top spring and Parking Brake Adjuster should be inserted first and this is easy. Locate the brake shoe lugs onto the piston ends. Then it is easy to engage the lower short spring and the brake shoe lower ends into their locations.
3. On the iterative adjustment of the Handbrake adjuster, if you go too far, it is possible to back off the adjuster by temporarily lifting the sprung ratchet piece, located behind the adjustment wheel of the Parking Brake adjuster, with finger or flat screwdriver.
4. The second shoe, spring clip is quite difficult to compress, a film of grease on on pin and spring clip help this process.
Ensure the pin is wire brushed and smooth and clean as possible. Takes a few attempts to engage spring clip, but is possible.
5. I recommend a thin film of grease on the shoe lugs, where they locate onto pistons and bottom locations.
6. When the job is complete, remove with liquid soap/rinse/dry, any grease deposits on the brake shoe faces and the 'active' shiny inner surface of the Brake Drum.
The anti-theft nut is very difficult, and it is easy to wear out and lose the key. It will be considered with expensive rims.
Yes I agree
I hope those are self-adjusters after you set the initial clearance they should self-adjust.
Even self adjusters dont work well. Occasionally you should still adjust it yourself
Damn now your going to make me look at my EMERGENCY BRAKE PADS..on the CRZ..nice work👍 hold on there should be an adjustment hole in the rear plate an oval shape rubber grommet ?
Some cars dont have that hole for adjusting
A lot easier technique is to build the shoes before fitting them to the car.
Never fails whatever car you work on.😉
Very well done...great video
What's the difference with the 2014 model versa? You got a video on that? This video is top notch too.
On the older models you can take the drum off and the wheel bearing stays attached to the car instead of coming off with the drum. You also don't have to remove the big center nut . At the moment i dont have a video on that but its pretty buch the same process, youll just have the wheel bearing still on your car.Thank you, I appreciate you watching 😊👍
Köszönöm .korrekt videó !
awesome video. I wish this was out a year ago when I was doing mine. One step is the ABS ring inside of the drum, could you show how you would take it out and replace it? I still don't really understand the tension portion
ricelife Thanks for watching, it looks like the abs ring has to be pulled off and the new one pressed on, usually requires special tools.
yah boy do I know that, I had put new ones on and didn't realize the abs ring needed to be swapped out, kinda expensive lesson.
+ricelife you live and you learn. At least you got it done 👍
Todo bien, excepto el torque de la tuerca de masa. Esa tuerca lleva más de 150 lb ft, para que lo tengan en consideración.
Great video extremely detailed!
Thank you
Thanks for the informative video! Also wanted to point out, in a manual I found for the k13 micra, the torque spec for the 30mm nut is 209nm or 154 ft-lb.
Which one's right?
They're both right. 209nm is equal to 154 ft lbs
You are a badass my friend thank you
Would it be possible to do one replacing the struts or shocks?
Well done!
Thank you 👍
Great video, thanks!
Thank you 👍
I have a 2016. Do your videos work for my car?
Yes it should be similar or exactly the same
I need to do this on a 2014 versa with 65000 miles on it. Should I replace all other components (which ones do you suggest) or just brake shoes and maybe drums? Also, do you suggest getting these parts at the dealer or an auto parts store? Thank you and great Video!!
You should replace the hardware (All the little springs) . The drums usually last a long time. You want to inspect them for uneven wear on the inside but most times the drum is ok. Auto parts store is ok , you can save good money by buying from rockauto.com. You just have to wait for shipping .
Great video thanks!
Thank you !
thanks! big help!
You're welcome! 👍
Hi Jonathan. When replacing me rear brakes on my 2016 versa note, do you recommend replacing the drums with the pads.
If the inside of the drums have deep grooves or excessive rust then I'd replace them. They look to be in good condition you can reuse them.
@@themechanic6117. Ok great. Thanks. Have a great year.
Ysame to you !
Nice job
Thank you👍
How to change CCTV oil nissan march
Hitting 90k miles with my 2015 and thinking of new brake drums and everywhere I look, they don’t have the lug studs attached. Do I need to buy those from the dealer or do the OEM drums come with them preinstalled?
Youll need to press in a new wheel bearing into the new drum and the studs need to be pressed out the old drum and pressed into the new drum.its not as easy as just replacing the drums like on other vehicles
Great demo but could do without annoying backing music.
Sorry for the inconvenience
Podrías hacer un video de la Nissan kicks please
Nissan kick?
How often do you need to replace the brake shoes?
+Cesar Ascencio it's hard to tell since people have different driving habits. They last much longer than brake pads . If you have a lot of miles on your car and never had the shoes replaced you should get them checked .
Can I reused the same bearing nut using some locktide?
I reused mine and it's been fine for years
Did my brakes as you did now my hand brake goes all the way up. Does not grab. Please help
Take the drums back off and make sure the parking brake cable is connected
@@themechanic6117 it is
This tutorial is for what year, make and model?
Did you watch the video? I said the year/make/model in the first 10 seconds
Does the same setup for 2016?
Yes
No era necesario romper la tapa del centro
These drum brakes are annoying to service. Simple in operation but overly complicated trying to put them back together. Why on earth do modern cars still come with drum brakes I’ll never know, when a brake rotor replacement is much much simpler and easier to do
Wrong model good vid
Not sure what you mean by wrong model
hi no problem the vid I wanted was for a later model car, which was not listed on you site thanks anyway
You say 90 ft lbs for NUT that hold drum on. Another video the guy says 177 ft lbs. I which I new which is correct.
177 sounds way to tight. Mine is at 90 and zero problems with it. Go with 177, youll know its too tight when you're doing the job all over to replace the bearing. 90 lb ft is what it says in my repair manual
@@themechanic6117 Yes 177 sound really tight. I just saw another video saying 177. I tried looking for online service manual but cant find one.
@@themechanic6117 great vids bro (2014 Versa SL here)... im nervous about the 90 lbs of torque too, the cheap Harbor Freight 1/2" Torque wrench maxes out at 150 lbs. Mind telling us what manual you're looking at?
Haynes manual for 07-14 . mine is a 2015 but the older versa uses the same drum style brakes and it says to torque it to 90 lb ft. Also I'm the first person to remove that nut since it car was made. It felt like it was tightened to 90 and not 177.
You put a rag on the jack to lift the car why why but with your front dirty seat it all make sense. 🤡🤡🤡
Because any paint you scratch off from the the car will start to rust
Pretty sure 90 foot pounds is not correct
So whats the correct specs?
@@themechanic6117 These 1A auto videos claim it's supposed to be 177 ft lbs.. m.ua-cam.com/video/U2F4ptwbs14/v-deo.html
But they also show you how to change the wheel bearing without a shop press which I do not recommend at all. You will almost definitely break the new wheel bearing if you try to do it that way, so I'm not sure what to believe.
@@themechanic6117 timkeninfo.com suggests 177 ft lbs too
I absolutely hate people who put locking lug nuts on wheels that nobody would steal🤣
The dealer put those on my car before I bought it... how stupid.
you are using the wrong torque and that nut 177 ft lbs not 90
The book says 90, it's been years and I've had zero issues with it being at 90.
Nice video, Thanks
+Kevin CA you're welcome, thanks for watching.
