How to replace the rear disc brake pads on a 2013-2017 (5th Generation) Nissan Altima. This video shows work on a 2015 Nissan Altima, yours will be very similar.
On my last video for the Altima Front Brakes, I did not show how to lube the guide pins. In this video I have included those steps. It is good to do this maintenance, I usually do it every other time I change the brakes on my cars, because I drive so much, my brake jobs are frequent. You may want to clean and lube the guide pins with every brake job you do.
NOTE about what lube to use:
Be sure to use Silicone Paste or some other high heat lube made for use with rubber, may types of lube will degrade rubber. I really like the 3M Silicone Paste, it is expensive but its great stuff and one bottle lasts a really long time. Here is the the Amazon link below: $21.70

Awesome vid , for the parts (in the description) it tells me the pads are only for the rear on my Nissan Altima 2013 . Can I buy them for the front brakes also or are they different
