FRONT BRAKE(except 6-Pot Caliper) INSTALLATION

CAUTION / NOTICE / HINT

Tech Tips


  • Use the same procedures for the LH side and RH side.

  • The procedures listed below are for the LH side.

Note

While the battery is connected, even if the power switch is off, the brake control system activates when the brake pedal is depressed or the door courtesy switch turns on. Therefore during servicing of the brake system components, do not operate the brake pedal or open/close the doors while the battery is connected.

      Tech Tips

      When replacing the front disc with a new one, select the installation position where the front disc has the minimum runout.

  2. INSTALL FRONT DISC BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY LH


    1. A000WCP

      Install the disc brake caliper with 2 new bolts.

      Torque:
      135 N*m  { 1377 kgf*cm, 100 ft.*lbf }

  3. CONNECT FRONT BRAKE FLEXIBLE HOSE


    1. A000YJS

      Connect the flexible hose with a new union bolt and a new gasket.

      Torque:
      39 N*m  { 400 kgf*cm, 29 ft.*lbf }

      Note

      Install the flexible hose lock securely in the lock hole in the disc brake caliper.

  4. INSTALL FRONT DISC BRAKE PAD KIT

    Note


    • When replacing worn pads, the anti-squeal shims must be replaced together with the pad.

    • When installing the shim, make sure its arrow is pointing in the direction of disc rotation for forward movement.

    • Install each shim in the correct position and direction.

    • Install each pad as shown in the illustration below.

    • There should be no oil or grease on the friction surface of the pads and the disc.

    • When replacing the brake pad on ECB (Electronically Controlled Brake) system equipped vehicles, retracting the caliper's piston and attaching a new brake pad will greatly increase the clearance between the brake pad and disc rotor, which will likely cause a DTC(s) to be set the next time the brake pedal is pressed.

      As there is no malfunction, delete the DTC(s).

      Refer to the following DTC chart for details on which DTC(s) to delete if DTC(s) is set.
