Repair Procedures

Removal

Be careful not to damage parts located under the vehicle (floor under cover, fuel filter, fuel tank, and canister) when lifting the vehicle with a lift. (Refer to General Information - Jack Lifting Points and Support Points)

1. 1
   Loosen the wheel nuts slightly. Raise the vehicle and make sure it is securely supported.
2. 2
   Remove the front wheel and tire (A) from the front hub.

   Tightening torque: 107.9–128 N·m

   Be careful not to damage the hub bolts when removing the front wheel and tire (A).

   

3. 3
   Remove the hose after loosening the brake hose bolt (A) on the caliper.

   Tightening torque: 24.5–29 N·m

   

4. 4
   Remove the caliper body (A) by loosening the guide rod bolt.

   Tightening Torque: 37.3–41 N·m

   

5. 5
   Remove the brake pad (A).

   

6. 6
   Remove the pad retainer (A).

   

7. 7
   Remove the caliper support (A) by loosening the caliper mounting bolts.

   Tightening torque: 98.1 - 118 N·m

   

8. 8
   Remove the front brake disc (A) by loosening the screws.

   Tightening torque: 4.9–5.8 N·m

   

Inspection

1. 1
   Inspect the brake disc for damage and cracks.
2. 2
   Remove all rust and contamination from the surface and measure the disc thickness at 24 points, at least at equal distances (5 mm) from the outer circumference of the brake disc. Front brake disc thickness - Standard: 30 mm (1.18 in) - Service Limit: 28 mm (1.10 in) - Deviation: less than 0.015 mm (0.0002 in)

   

3. 3
   If wear exceeds the service limit, replace the discs and pads as a set, left and right of the vehicle.
4. 4
   Position the dial indicator approximately 10 mm (0.20 in) from the outer circumference of the brake disc and measure the disc runout.

   Brake Disc Runout Limit: 0.050 mm (0.0016 in) or less (new)

   

5. 5
   If brake disc runout exceeds the limit, replace the disc, then measure the runout again.
6. 6
   If runout does not exceed the limit, install the brake disc rotated 180°, then inspect the brake disc runout again.

Installation

1. 1
   To install, reverse the removal procedure.
2. 2
   Use SST (09581-11000) when installing the brake caliper assembly.

   

3. 3
   After installation, bleed the brake system. (Refer to Brake System - "Brake System Bleeding") (Refer to Brake System - "ESP System Bleeding")
