Comments by "Colorado Boo" (@coloradoboo1071) on "How to replace your Toyota brakes Part 3 Installation" video.
Best videos for us DIYers! For years, all I dared do was oil and filter changes but you and a few others taught me I can do more! I just finished front pad/rotor change in my sons 2008 Corolla and your tip with the bolt to remove the rusty rotor worked great! On the test drive, no squealing at all!!

Thanks for these three brake videos! As a DIYer, I think doing my own brake jobs saves the most money of all maintenance tasks...those brake shops are a bunch of snakes. My biggest problem when first doing brake jobs was bleeding the fluid but I found using a Mityvac Automotive test and bleed kit works great. I'm doing the front pads/rotors in my daughters 2012 Sienna this morning....I'm excited! (If it goes good, I'm hoping to have time to also change out her front differential fluid...I already got the engine oil/transmission/ and rear diff done.)

@TheCarCareNut In the Suzuki Sx4, the tire was rusted to the rotor...that was a pain removing!!!!!

Re-watched these brake videos...best on YouTube...it's been a year since I did the fronts on the 2012 Sienna and, now, the rears are making noises so replacing both tomorrow....LOVE my Quick Jacks when working on cars, saves time and my bad back. (Three herniated disks from my military career) The Lord bless you and keep you too, brother! (And may His face shine upon you and give you shalom!)

So the 2012 Sienna brakes had the non-caliper side seized on the pad!! Ever see that?? But she’s done and working great. I cleaned and reused the hardware, it was still good.

Just finished rear brakes in my daughters 2012 Toyota Sienna van. I don’t think they’ve ever been done and those big 17mm screws needed some hammering to break free (no room for an impact gun) Your tips were great!! I, also like putting the pads on out on a table!! One guide pin was squeaky after doing the job so I just removed it…the other side will tell us when they are low pads)
