Nissan Sentra Brake Pad Set Parts Questions & Experts Answers
Q: How to replacr front and rear disc brake pads, including steps for caliper disassembly, pad installation, and brake fluid management on Nissan Sentra?
A: This procedure applies to front and rear disc brakes. Remove the cap from the brake fluid reservoir. Loosen the front or rear wheel lug nuts, raise the front or rear of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Block the wheels at the opposite end. Remove the wheels. Work on one brake assembly at a time, using the assembled brake for reference if necessary. Inspect the Brake Disc carefully. If machining is necessary, follow the information to remove the disc. Push the piston back into its bore to provide room for the new brake pads. A C-clamp can be used to accomplish this. As the piston is depressed to the bottom of the caliper bore, the fluid in the master cylinder will rise. Make sure that it doesn't overflow. If necessary, siphon off some of the fluid. Before disassembling the brake, wash it thoroughly with brake system cleaner and allow it to dry. Position a drain pan under the brake to catch the residue. DO NOT use compressed air to blow off brake dust! Remove the caliper lower mounting bolt; don't remove the brake hose banjo bolt unless the caliper or hose requires service! Pivot the caliper up and secure it in that position with a piece of wire. Remove the inner brake pad. Remove the outer brake pad. Remove the lower pad retainer. Remove the upper pad retainer. Pull the caliper upper slide pin out of the mounting bracket, then clean it and lubricate it with high-temperature brake grease. Also remove the lower slide pin, clean it, lubricate it with high-temperature brake grease, then reinstall it. Install the pad retainers. Install the shim (or shim and shim cover) on the pads. Apply anti-squeal compound to the back of both pads. Install the inner brake pad and shim, making sure the wear indicator is positioned correctly. Install the outer brake pad. Note how the wear indicator and spring are oriented. Swing the caliper down, install the caliper mounting bolt and tighten it. When reinstalling the caliper, tighten the mounting bolts. Tighten the wheel lug nuts. After the job has been completed, firmly depress the brake pedal a few times to bring the pads into contact with the disc. Check the level of the brake fluid, adding some if necessary. Check the operation of the brakes carefully before placing the vehicle into normal service.
