Pumping brakes is the first step to recalibration . Also Don't forget to set your parking brake a few times to recalibrate your parking brake piston, before actually starting up to test your brakes on a short range. ( 2018 Civic Sport ) 😎 Great video!!

Excellent point, regarding pumping brakes as the first step to recalibration 👏🏽

Great info Thanks for the help

I can’t get the little wire off 😂 I broke the clip thing too.

After I did this again (to install new Rotors) the clip broke on the driver’s side LOL. Hate this new stuff, but we got to live with it 😫😫😫

Didn’t need anti cease for the threaded part of pin ?

I haven't had a problem, but I can see that making removal easier in the future.

Did you ever figure out why your pads were wearing out so unevenly? Mine are doing the same thing on my 2020 Honda Civic

My guess would be an inadequate caliper that's not working like it should, or the retention springs are binding. Causing the pads to stay more, or less, against the rotor, wearing the pads down faster. Generally the front wear faster than the rear, so they may be a little more worn down, but they should look about the same. Front pads should look about the same on each side, and rear pads should look about the same on each side. As always, work your way up from replacing the cheapest part first.

My best assumption would be dry slider pins. I realized later just how dry they were on the passenger side; so after the caliper compresses, the seized pins do not let it retract and center, causing drag on the outer pad.

@@JamesFixIt were you getting squealing? I’m having an issue where my passenger-rear keeps glazing really bad, causing squealing at low speeds and while turning even while brakes not engaged. It’s kind of intermittent and seems to occur after brakes are warm. Pins don’t look damaged and I definitely grease them well. I don’t think the hose is damaged. I’ve used two different pads (duramax and Napa), but they’ve both been semi-metallic. My next step is either akebono or oem. Do you think material is the issue? Mine is a 22 with 80k and I’m at a loss. Any input would be appreciated. Thanks man!

any damage for caliper? or not?

No damage to the caliper, just needed a thorough clean and full re-lube for the slider pins.
