Nowadays, people have no idea about the basic principles of how a car works. Let alone regular maintenance such as changing the engine oil, brake pads, or brake discs. Thank you for the great and consistent instructions. Very useful tutorial!
I haven't done brake pads in a number of years, and have never replaced the rotors. Roll forward a million years and I decided to help my son replace his on his 07 Accord rather than pay someone 1000-1300 to do it at a shop. This video was super helpful especially about the impact screwdriver. That was a life-saver!
Hey I just want to say your video helped me fix my car with new rotors and new brakes never really done it before and your video really helped so thank you so much you're such a hero
@Dan the fix it man Thanks for the video, quick question I followed your DIY for changing my brakes and rotors for my Honda accord. and after a month the wheel starts to shake when I am braking on the highway going between 55 to 65. Sometime more frequently than other times. Do you think I overtorque the caliper bolts making it harder for the pins to move ? I was told that I warp the rotor ( even though the mechanic didn't look at it )already but it really hasn't been that long. Thanks
Haha, I know right...Please see the update in the description, The 4th setting on the tool was not working correctly for some reason. It works great on the 3rd setting and takes off caliper bolts and lug nuts easy now. I might have to reach out to Milwaukee, or I will just use it on the 3rd setting from now on for removing stuff like this. Thanks for watching! -Dan the Fix it Man

@@joule041 Thank you so much!
Working on my 07 Accord 3.0 brakes. Why pay someone when I just learned how to do it myself. Big thanks brother!

It would be great if you add a list of tools and what you would need for each job before hand 😊

Hi Matthew,
Thank you for the kind words! So happy to hear my video helped you out.
Take care,

For the holes on those slide pins, I use a cleaning rod and a brush attachment from a firearm cleaning kit.
The wheel holds the rotor on. Those screws are just to hold the rotor on during service.
Outstanding video. Very informative
How long did this job take to complete start to finish? How much would you have charged in labor for the whole thing not counting parts
Luv your work Dan, very helpful! Thanks 👍

I needed this video thank you
Hi there does anybody know what positions the slide pins go?
Thanks! You make it look easy.
Should have gotten the DEWALT impact. Would have pulled those rotor bolts off easy!!!!
