The amount of money the customer pay doesn't mean the mechanics will do a better job and is the reason i do it myself
I would pay it if i did not do all my own work.
I dont use a funnel or my dipstick.
One of the best tutorial videos I have seen without saying a word. Awesome video!!!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Well did you bleed the brakes? If not then absolutely f*ckn not my boyee
Everyone is commenting how they like this idea but I'm also wondering what oil brand that is. I know it's a Mobil super 5000 bottle and Mobil 1 provides to GM and Toyota Nissan ..but I have to know
You should never use antiseeze on brake parts because it coagulates with heat and causes problems.
$200 for pads and rotors is pretty cheap
Do you pour it in that hole with the "710" cap on it? 😉
i do my own automotive repairs, i have even fixed my own brakes and hubs for just the cost of the amazon parts. yes, i think $200 is too much given my experience on how easy they are most of the time.. every once in a while you get a stuck bolt that don't want to let go, but that rarely happens.
Don’t try this at home, this is some Penn & Teller shit! 😄
For the front brakes, do you need the brake maintenance mode on?
i would never give this work to a guy who uses paste to mount rotor...
My Honda dealer in NorCal charging my 2014 Accord V6 with $500 just for front pads. Plan to do it myself....later.
Instructions unclear Oil in radiator now
Did mine this past weekend. Yes, the springs were a pain! Especially if you have all new hardware included with your pads. I had to put the pads on prior to installing back on the rotor. Pins were almost seized.
Yeah, I’m wondering why that cause the brakes to wear so fast the pins sticking. It was similar on the rear brakes.
Excellent camera work....
Thank you! 👍
There are nonprofessionals in the comment section that are giving potentially dangerous advice. For instance, forcing brake fluid back to the reservoir, can catastrophically damage the ABS unit. That is why you are taking a risk if you’re not a professional and only relying on a UA-cam video.
I recently how to do a 600.00 brake job myself which included 4 rotors, 4 calibers, 4sets of pads and some grease and die grinding😂... it was definitely worth saving a thousand bucks just for labor having the stealership do it
Genius
200 dollars. No! 140 yea..
Depends on the car. Some are a pain. Some are easy. My dealership charges 3 hours, per axel. I can have an axle done in an hour and a half. I work for a Western Star dealership. Just depends on the vehicle.
Not really, get your rotors re-surfaced.
$200? I was quoted $600...forget that, I'm doing it myself.
Is that ainti seize
I’m 16 and this is the only right way to do a brake job that what my 67 years old coworker thaught me
They taught you well. Listen to what they say. 👍
Cant find quality, reliable honest mechanics anymore. At least not in tacoma WA.
Don’t like the price? Buy you about $1k in tools (just to start out because that’s not even half of what you’re going to need) Buy you a manual and start wrenching. When you’re finished you can then pick up the phone and call the guy in the video or myself to fix your fuq ups. Mechanically inclined people don’t go to shops to begin with UNLESS they are humble enough to know when something is beyond their expertise.
damn yall getting scrwed my corner auto place is 80 for all brakes when i dont wanna do it my self
im going to do these off a kenwood ddx 396 head unit and a Dayton Audio SD315A-88 12" DVC on a Alpine BBX-T600 amp just for fun to see what i can do low powered low cost should be fun.
$200 for labor or the whole job parts included ?
Just labor
I believe those caliper bolts are one time use it’s a vw thing 👀
Use quality parts. Nothing from Auto Zone or Advance. O'Reillys Only. Import Direct pads and rotors for all import vehicles. SPC pads and rotors for american vehicles.
I wrote myself a $400 check by doing it myself.
Nice 👍
Rumor has it he's actually sheetrock hanger..
I'm in SC and was just quoted $500 for the rear brakes and rotors by 2 service stations. One is national (Firestone) and one is local.
Yup so my prices are fair then.
Why pay someone to do your brakes lol
Anything more than 50 bucks an axel and you're getting ripped off.
Lol sounds like prices from 30 years ago.
@@AndyTheXTech not really, there's still plenty of legitimate honest mechanics that won't rip you off and do brakes between 40 and 60 bucks an axle. It's only the modern mechanics who thinks that they're God's gift to mankind and each one is a professional after only working in the industry a few years. There's a special place in hell for mechanics, contractors, plumbers, electricians, hvac, anybody in the trades who is ripping people off on The Daily by overcharging for work and especially by doubling, or more, parts prices instead of only charging the legitimate actual Parts price. I'm not too worried as karma is very real and when bad things happen to you, or your loved ones, you won't need to look very far as for a reason why... just check the mirror
And later ohh my wheel is shaking . Keep surface clean
Absolutely not. Brakes are so easy. The issue is most people don’t have all the equipment/tooling or don’t realize how easy the job is.
Is that just for pads? Does it include new rotors? Did my own break job on my Caravan It was $500 just for parts. New rotors and pads all around.
That’s just a hack vs less of a hack when doing a brake job you need to make sure you take the most care and effort and make sure it’s absolutely correct if you want to hack a paint job or stereo install go ahead someone will do it right don’t let someone get injured because your a half assed mechanic
hell no
Doing it better and for less!
Do you need to keep the pad plates from the old pads? Some videos showing that you need to keep the back plate from the OEM pads when you install new.
If you have to explain why you charge what you do you prolly charging too much
Lol 😂
