Replacing around the brake pads Camry 70

Camry 70

Brake pads Toyota Camry 70 require periodic replacement. Its resource directly depends on driving style. Consider how to independently replace the front and rear pads of the Camry 70, as well as what spare parts to buy for replacement.

When to change brake pads on a Toyota Camry 70

You can determine that Camry 70 brake pads need to be replaced by the following signs:

• changes in the moment of pressing the brake pedal - excessive failure of the pedal;
• when braking, increased vibration is observed - it is reflected both on the brake pedal and on the body of the Camry 70. The reason is the uneven wear of the linings and discs;
• hissing, creaking sounds during braking - these extraneous sounds can form for various reasons: the operation of the lining wear indicator, poor adhesion of the friction layer of the pad to the disc, brake system malfunctions;
• the braking efficiency of the Camry 70 is deteriorating - this is manifested in an increase in the braking distance;
• a decrease in the fluid level in the brake master cylinder - as the wear of the pads increases, the pistons move further and further. As a result, the level drops. But the reason for the decrease in fluid may also be the depressurization of the brake circuit of the Toyota Camry 70.

inspection

To determine the wear of the Toyota Camry 70 disc brake pads, you first need to remove the wheel. Then the caliper is moved aside and the thickness of the friction layer is measured. You can try to do the operation without removing the clamp. You can also navigate along a special longitudinal or diagonal groove on the friction surface. In addition, the condition of the caliper guides and the working piston is assessed by the movement of the wing. Grease is applied to these elements as needed.

The minimum allowable thickness of the front and rear brake pads of the Toyota Camry 70 is 1 mm. If less, then it should be replaced.

What pads to put on Camry 70

Let's find out which brake pads are better to put on a Toyota Camry 70 instead of stock. This will save you money. But when using low-quality analogues, it corrodes the disk, dust forms, and the braking efficiency of the Camry 70 decreases.

Spare parts from the Korean manufacturer Sangsin (Hi-Q) are a good option. Articles:

• SP4275 - front friction pads;
• SP4091 - rear.

Also, for the front of the Camry 70, the NISSHINBO version with catalog number NP1167 is suitable, and for the rear, Akebono parts.

The resource of Camry 70 factory friction linings ranges from 80 to 000 km. A lot depends on how you drive. With an aggressive style, the resource is reduced. At the same time, situations are often observed when factory-replaced pads with original ones purchased from a dealer wear out after 100-000 thousand kilometers.

Helpful hints and warnings

When replacing brake pads Toyota Camry 70, you will need to adhere to the following recommendations:

• The pads must be changed in a set of four pieces, all on both wheels on the same axle.
• The fluid level in the master brake cylinder is preliminarily checked: at the maximum value set, the fluid must be pumped out with a syringe or a rubber bulb. After installing spare parts, the fluid level will rise due to wear of the old liners.

• At the time of replacing the pads, the condition of the wings of the guide pins and the free play of the caliper relative to the guide pads should be assessed. When troubleshooting a problematic movement, you need to apply lubricant to the caliper guide pins. After the finger is removed, lubricant is applied to it. Good lubricant for TRW PFG-110 guides. The remaining parts of the brake system can be lubricated with original grease with article number 0-8888-01206. If there is mechanical damage to the protective cover, it must be replaced.

• After installing new, even stock, pads on the Camry 70, a decrease in braking efficiency is observed. This is due to insufficient traction with worn discs. The pads touch them unevenly, most often at the edges. For high-quality grinding of the friction material, it is recommended to avoid sudden braking over a hundred kilometers. Otherwise, overheating of the working surface is observed, which is accompanied by a significant increase in the lapping process. Checking the braking efficiency of the installed pads should be carried out on roads without heavy traffic.

Replacing the front pads Camry 70

Camry V70 front brake pads are changed in the following cases:

• wear of the friction layer has reached a minimum level;
• decrease in the strength of the connection with the base;
• when oil gets on the working surface or the formation of chips, deep grooves.

At the same time, it is recommended to evaluate the condition of the pads at each maintenance of the Toyota Camry 70.

To carry out operations to replace the front friction linings of the Toyota Camry 70, you will need a key for fourteen, seventeen and pliers. To do this, you will need to do the following:

• Front wheel Camry 70 is removed from the front left.
• Holding with your fingers, unscrew the two caliper mounting bolts.
• The caliper is detached from the guide pads. Then he pulls back and looks. To do this, you can use a cable, fixing it on the depreciation mechanism. Thus it is necessary to exclude torsion and a tension of a brake hose.

• Friction lining pressure springs are disassembled into two parts.

• Camry 70 indoor and outdoor units have been removed.
• The base plates are removed from the guide pads at the top and bottom. Then they are lubricated and reinstalled;

• Observing the reverse sequence, the Camry 70 front brake pads are mounted. It is recommended that a threaded lock be applied to the fasteners of the caliper guide pins to prevent spontaneous unwinding.
• The wheel is mounted and the fluid level in the Camry 70 master brake cylinder is checked.

Changing the rear brake pads

Before replacing the rear pads on the Camry 70, the caliper pistons will need to be flattened. The Camry 70 has a parking brake and power rear calipers.

Let's take a closer look at the procedure for performing the operation.

How to easily spread the pistons in the rear calipers (electric handbrake)

To reduce the pistons of the rear calipers Toyota Camry 70, you will need to perform the following operations:

• The ignition is off, the automatic transmission selector is in the neutral or parking position.
• Ignition on, brake pedal depressed.
• Next, you need to raise the parking brake control button three times and then down three times. As a result, the parking light on the dashboard flashes frequently. The brake pedal is released. If the operation fails, turn the ignition off and on again.
• To reduce the pistons, you will need to hold the handbrake control button in the lower position until the sound of the rear wheel motors is formed. The completion of the operation is signaled by the parking indicator, which will flash less frequently.
• Replacing the rear pads Camry 70.
• In order to press the pistons against the installed Camry 70 friction linings, it is necessary to hold the parking brake control key in the up position. At the end of the operation, the parking indicator will stop flashing, but will simply light up.

Replacement

To replace the rear brake pads on a Toyota Camry 70, you need a key for fourteen and seventeen. The order of work is as follows:

• The caliper piston is recessed according to the scheme described above.

• The rear wheel is removed, where the Camry 70 pads are changed.
• The lower guide pin of the caliper is held and the fixing bolt is unscrewed.
• The support is pulled up.
• The springs are removed, the outer and inner friction linings are disassembled. Then your motherboards.
• The surface of the base plates is treated with grease, then installed in place;

• In the future, the reverse installation of new Toyota Camry pads is carried out. In this case, it will be necessary to lubricate the piston bellows and introduce lubricant into the internal cavity, since even at low strokes it sticks. Use lithium soap based grease or genuine Toyota grease as lubricant. To make sure the caliper drive pins are secure, apply threadlocker before tightening the bolts.

• Camry 70 rims installed.
• Caliper piston returns to normal position.
