One thing I didn't realize the other day was that the e brake needs to be released to get the rear rotors off. I always have that on when the car is jacked up on one side, but didn't occur to me the e brake would hold the rotor on. You live and learn. Regardless, thank you again. It was an oldie but a goodie.

It's one thing doing the job properly. It's another thing filming doing the job properly - properly. It's a WHOLE other thing doing the job AND filming the job so concisely. Stellar performance all round!

No music. No talking. Only details. Great videos.

If you're like me, the old rotors were really hard to remove. But Subaru made a nice way to do it. The rotors have two bolt holes that don't get used except to remove the rotor. Take out one of the 12mm (I think) radiator mount bolts from the engine bay, and thread it into the empty hole. Use a ratchet to force the bolt into the spindle, separating the rotor in the process. No banging with a hammer, no man handling it. Just easy.

You might have just saved my life

Useful, and helpful. It would help to note that at 1:00 the caliper bolts need to be removed by turning them what seems like clockwise (since the bolt is inserted from the back). A typical shade tree mechanic might (as I did) initially try to loosen those bolts by turning counterclockwise.

Just did all 4 on my 2006 Legacy this weekend. New rotors, pads, shims and boots. First brake job ever. Easy to do and man, so much fun! Took most of the day but like I say a blast. Parts came to about $250 so saved a ton of money. Somewhere my dad is smiling. Why does the bottom slide pin have that rubber piece? Thank you for sharing your knowledge. Love working on my Subie.

I was always taught to place the c-clamp inside the piston to avoid pushing the piston back in crooked to the bore, but i was taught in the 60’s. This video is very informative thank you. I do like your newer videos better when you talk your way thru the job.

Mr. Subaru, thanks so much for your videos and content. I have a quick question about the torque specs for the front caliper bracket and caliper mounting bolt. What are they? I'm working on my 2003 BH Ej251 Outback. I found specs for the 03 Foz and I'm not sure if they are the same. The Foz is: Front Bracket: 59 ft-lb Caliper: 27.5 ft-lb Rear Bracket: 38.3 ft-lb Caliper: 27.5 ft-lb They are 4 Pot brakes, so are they the same? Thanks in advance!

My jack stands don't fit the jacking point that snugly, not by a long shot. I wonder was the jack stand altered a bit to suit the Subaru? Safe to do to mine, or well chosen jack stand?

Need to replace pads on my 2016 OB. Thoughts on OEM vs Akebono pads. Seems I can get Akebono pads for less and seem to be same if not better. Thoughts....

Same torque specs on 2012 outback 3.6? Is it necessary to bleed it prior to pushing the piston back and removing caliper?

Great video

At the end of the video you say to depress and realease the brake pedal several times. Do i do this with the cap on the brake fluid reservoir or off the brake fluid reservoir? Or does is matter? Thanks.

The slide pins are different. Does it matter which goes on top or bottom? Thanks

Hey mr. subie, I have a 91 legacy wagon that I’m doing rear brakes and rotors on. I have got the new rotor on and the read pad but I can’t get the caliper over the rotor and pad. The top caliper bolt is not a bolt it has a nut thing in between the caliper and rotor. Not sure what to do with it

Very good, thanks

Question. If i only change rotors and pads and not actually remove anything else do i need to bleed the breaks?

I thought we just did silicone for the caliper slide pins? Why high temp brake grease on the rears?

What if the bracket bolt snaps off? Will the bracket just fall off or is the whole thing threaded? As in both parts.

solid point. Thank you for the fast replies! love your channel.

I stopped by to help decide where the wear indicator should be, and I see that your wear indicator is on the top (trailing end) of the inner pad for the rear. The dealers repair manual is very badly written! A quick search showed up a reference that said wear indicators should generally be on the on the end of the pad that contacts a point on the rotor first as the rotor spins. So according to 'internet experts', the bottom of pads mounted behind the axle midline, as here. If that is true then it suggests you've got the inner pads on the wrong side, (similar to the way you found them). Interestingly in your case at 2:10 you can see the pad was thinner on the end without the wear indicator, so maybe there is something to that general suggestion. I don't know....

Hey I was hoping you could help me out again. Still working on the darn thing. I replaced the front drivers caliper because pistons were seized.

@@MrSubaru1387 if you know anything about how similar this is for 2016 Outback, please let me know. I'm about to try this on my 2016 Outback.

Pretty similar, but the 2016 has the electric parking brake calipers. I think you need a scan tool to reset the calipers for the new pads, but I'm not 100% sure.

break oil ?

I think my problem is its rusted to hell. I got the top one out and the bracket still wont move at all lol. I put WD40 all over. Gonna leave it tonight and hope it comes out in the morning. What a pain in the ass.

Ahhh didn't show the part where the rotor was seized :(
