Dude, I've NEVER seen those spring clips that go in the brake holes. You solved a mystery for me today, thanks!

also without them the brakes on this model at least wear "strange" and it causes a less than that awesome pedal feeling. I tried another brand before this video was ever made and went back to the oem style as it was and is superior.

@@ChrisEdwardsRestoration that's interesting to hear. As with most products, it's best to use all parts to use the full design as intended, but I'm guessing a lot of folks have skipped putting the spring clips in having no idea where they go.

Same here. I did a full pad replacement on my '14 Soul Exclaim and: a) Those spring thingies were not in place when I pulled the wheels, and b) the replacement pads CarQuest pads (supposedly the "good ones") did not include those spring thingies. Also, at 52K miles the fittings for the clips were very rusty and it took what seemed forever to wirebrush them back to where the pad clips would fit properly.

Thanks brother I just changed the brake pads on my 2018 Kia soul and watching your video step by step with super easy appreciate it

Thank you so much Sir! You saved me ton of money. God bless you.

Wow did not know, you know mechanics well. Is this procedure similar to Toyota auris hybrid as well

Thank you for seeking the truth

I do it from the front with the floor jack and point it where the transmission mount hold and lift both from tires at a time. what you just said it lift the rear tire and is too dangerous. Mine is and thanks God has not those metal things to hold the pads. Don't leave the caliper on top of the Rotor, it could fall easy by any mistake and damage the brake hose. I don't recommend using a C-clam, there are plenty of other tools better out there. ----- If you going to do this job, please don't be Lazy and don't do a dirty job. Remove the Caliper holder, pads, discs, clean and lube everything. I have two cars and do every two years. Every 6 month I use Brake cleaner spray. There is so much good things to do at that moment, so please keep it nice . It's your car.

The man failed to tell you, have your rotors turned! Your rotors will have hot spots on them and eventually cause overheating and warping to your rotors. Never just slap on the pads on any vehicle creates warping and steering wheel shake

If they weren't doing all that before the change, they likey won't after. KIA rotors may not be thick enough after wearing out a set of pads to turn anyway.

Hardly anyone turns rotors when you can buy new ones so cheaply theses days. I’ve done dozens of pad replacements without changing or turning rotors and NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES! Not to say someone (or me) won’t ever have problems but so far so good…even did a new set of front pads on a Kia Soul today and no issues.
