Brake Pad Replacement

How are brake pads changed?

Here is an overview of the steps:

Raise the car on a lift or jacks and jack stands.
Remove the wheels.
Remove the brake calipers. Brake pad replacement is done in pairs — both front wheels or both rear wheels at the same time, or all four.
Remove and check rotors. Resurface or replace as necessary.
Replace worn brake pads with a new set.
Replace rotors and calipers.
Replace wheels and torque bolts to specifications.

Replacing brake pads on your vehicle is a fairly straightforward procedure, and can be done at home. But because brakes are essential safety equipment, we strongly recommend having a certified repair shop perform this job.

Other brake pad considerations

Brake rotors show wear patterns after many times of grinding into the old brake pads, and must be replaced to avoid brake noise, uneven braking pressure and unpredictable braking performance. Any grease or automotive fluid, other than water, on the brake rotor will instantly contaminate the brake pad, necessitating replacement of the pads.
