How to: Replace Rear Brakes: Caliper, Rotor, Brake Pads – Acura TSX 2006

Do you hear a squeaking/grinding sound from your brakes, yet they appear to have plenty of pad remaining?
The rear calipers tend to seize up as they age and when that happens, the inside pad on the back of the rotor – the one you don’t see – ends up doing the majority of the work, until it wears down to nothing. By this point the rotor is usually shot as well, so today I’ll show how to replace the caliper, rotor and brake pads on the rear of my 2006 Acura TSX. This installation is the same for 2004-2008 TSX and similar for newer models as well as Honda Accords.
Here is last week’s video, when I painted the new brakes to keep them from rusting: https://youtu.be/L6HjJb6ioY0

Follow my rust prevention method and never have to deal with this ever again. It’s called moving out of Ohio. It works like a charm every time!

got a wire brush but you can brush the rust on bolts but not the horrendous hub face?

its interesting to see the differences between a U.S spec TSX and a UK spec Accord, even the braking systems are different. UK cars, mostly got Lucas brake calipers, but they too suffer from the same problem of the slider pins getting stuck. My last replacement caliper was due to the handbrake mechanism getting completely seized that no amount of lubricating and working back and two would fix.
