Torque the lugnuts VERY carefully with a GOOD torque wrench as well to help prevent this from happening again.

alright so is putting new rotors and pads on very difficult....like can i do it myself or should i have it done and im planning on gettin the bendix rotors and ceramic pads

Good equipment choices.

The job is quite simple.

1. Jack up car
2. Remove wheels
3. Unbolt calipers. They're bolted in place with two 3/8" allen head bolts.
4. Slide caliper aside
5. Remove old pads (they're clipped in place)
6. Slide rotor off hub
7. Clean new rotor with brake cleaner (to remove oils)
8. Slide new rotor on the hub
9. Compress the piston into the caliper housing. Use a C-Clamp.
10. Clip new pads into the caliper
11. Bolt the caliper to the knuckle
12. Reinstall the wheel
13. Torque the wheel lugnuts to 100 ft. lbs. in a criss-cross fashion
14. Verify the fluid level in the resivoir on the master cylinder is full. If not, add DOT 3 brake fluid to top it off

Very easy! 30 minute job.

thanks for the great writeup i went to advance today and they told me its gonna cost 180 for everything that kinda seems like alot to me? anywhere i can get everything cheaper?

If you dont mind, can you list the prices. When I do Mine is $30-40 per rotor and 45-45 for a set of pads for both sides

bendix rotors- $65 apiece
ceramic pads- $45 for set

this was at advance auto parts

65 seems high for rotors. Anyone agree?

Mmmm you are talking about premium rotors here. Cheapies cost me $25-30 and I think the Bendix were $50 each...but that'* with a HEALTHY discount.

The bendix ceramic pads were $60 for me.

Yes!!! Especially for all you lucky guys down in the lower 48 who do not have to pay the exorbenant shipping prices. Still not as bad as CA thought (no pun intended y'all). I have bought them for ~$30 a side while I was in GA and that was not all that long ago. Pads seem a little high as well $45 for. Maybe I buy cheap, but I have not had any probs with them though

The chepies from AutoZone cost me $13 each.

The Napa Gold rotors are $40 each.

Pads with a lifetime warranty from AutoZone are $18.
