Never let the caliper hang, zip tie it or better yet don't remove the top bolt on the caliper, just the bottom bolt needs removing, and use the old break pad to push back the piston with a c-clamp.

Yup. Thank you for the information. 💯% accurate and true. If you remove the whole caliper use something to hang it with. DO NOT LET IT HANG HOW I DID the hose can tear/break. Thank you for pointing out my mistakes.

Yes, old-school style. 👍. But on some of these newer models. The caliper must turn like a screw to retract it. But yes. On most cars and front brakes of this car the old brake pad and C-clamp will do just fine. Please go sslloowww take your time.

Thank you!!!! Drove into work this morning and my brakes started talking to me. Guess I know what I'm doing this afternoon. Happen to know how to change out the high pressure fuel pump? My Traverse is giving me all kinds of problems.

Glad my brake video will help. But nope sorry. I have no idea about the fuel pump. But honestly, I don't think it would be any different from the process of any other fuel pump replacement. Which of course is, Dropping the tank, disconnecting the hoses, taking the fuel pump out of the tank, a good counterclockwise twist and pop, there's your pump. I know sounds easy. But it take time and work. Make sure to have the new pump before doing the work. The worst is doing it twice. Good luck and thank you for watching.

Do you have a video on how to change the rotors as well? Usually you replace both rotors and pads at the same time.

Sorry no I don't. But about 4 minutes into the video you will see a bracket that is still on there. Removing that bracket, the rotor should slide right out. I hope this helps.

What kind of noise? Knocking or ding sounds double check your work make sure you tightened everything up properly. Rubbing or scraping squeaking minor grinding. Lightly scrape your rotors from center outward "NOT IN A CIRCULAR MOTION" with a light grid sand paper.

Yes. You can even wash around it with a pressure washer. Just don't get to close to the bushings with the pressure washer.

anybody have a part number on those brakes?

A part number is not usually used for brake pads. The year make & model is mostly used. If ordering through the dealer, your vehicles Vin number will be used.
