Save big money by changing your brake pads and rotors yourself on your Porsche. This video I’ll be going though a step by step in changing brake pads and rotors on the rear wheels of a Porsche 911 Carrera 991.1. I’ll even show you how to safely jack up your 911. This should cover many other 911’s like the 997, 987,986,996, Porsche Macan, Cayman and more models.
The material cost was roughly $600. The Porsche dealer quoted me a modest $1500. With this DIY I saved $900 and it wasn’t difficult.
I ordered the following from Suncoast Parts…

 Rear Brake Pads and Rotor Replacement- DIY Step by Step.')){kind=link}
Great video! They want $5k at the dealership where I am in the great white North for rotors and pads.
So, there’s no need for any bleeding of the brake fluid even after opening the brake fluid cap?

Nice video. You sound very professional.
do you need to replace the sensor or is it preventative maintanence??
you have the best DIY
What about the parking break, any adjustments on that? Any videos of replacement of these?
Good sir, is this the same for my 2020 GT4? And how about the front brakes? Same thing?
Where are the rotors Porsche rotors or do you just get those from pelican?
Great video, I'm just about to do this job!
Doesn’t look like you had the car in parking brake service mode. I guess if you don’t there’s nothing to calibrate when done?
anti-seize or locktite on the small rotor bolt? Did I see blue stuff on the tip?
It sounds like you live across the street from a park, or you did this at a child’s birthday party.
TKY for the great video I will do the brakes on my 2012 911S
Don't forget to clean new rotor surface with brake parts cleaner when installing. There is a anti corrosion coating that needs to be removed.
Thank you very helpful.
