New Brake Pad & Rotor Kit from 1AAuto.com http://1aau.to/ia/1ABFS02527

Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes. This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2011-2015 Kia Sorento.

Excellent video. Excellent teacher. Thank you

James W. says:

You need to also mention that you need to check the fluid level in the master cylinder reservoir before compressing the piston. If it was topped off earlier when the pads were worn it could overflow the reservoir. Brake fluid is corrosive. You might need to remove some fluid before compressing the piston at the wheel.

Gary Martin says:

Never understood why they put the 2 screws in the rotors

Dale Unroe says:

sorry but this real world 2013 Sorrento owner has issues with those damn shims – installed the pads just don't fit …and this absolutely is frustrating – opted to only install shims to one side as a compromise – rotor did not want to come off – if you absolutely need to you can use that access port covered by that tiny plug to reduce the tension on the parking brake pads for removal

Linda Smith says:

That look more like a drum to me not a rotor

Daniel MacDuff says:

Maybe put some grease on the back of the two brake pads…

Robert Davies says:

What in the heck is the purpose of those two little screws on the rotor???

Mark Anderson says:
