FRONT DISC BRAKE
Revision: 2006 January2006 M35/M45
It is not necessary to remove bolts on torque member and brake hose except for disassembly or
replacement of caliper assembly. In this case, hang cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch
brake hose.
Do not damage piston boot.
If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
Always replace shim and shim cover as a set when replacing brake pads.
Keep rotor free from brake fluid.
Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces, after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-28, "
BRAKE
BURNISHING PROCEDURE" .
Removal and Installation of Brake PadNFS000PD
REMOVAL
1. Remove tires from vehicle with power tool.
2. Remove lower sliding pin bolt.
3. Hang cylinder body with a wire, and remove pads, pad retainers,
shims, and shim cover from torque member.
CAUTION:
When removing the pad retainer from the torque member,
lift it in the direction indicated by the arrow in the figure so
that it does not deform.
INSTALLATION
1. Apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or equivalent to between shim cover and shim. Install shim, shim
cover, to pad.
2. Apply PBC (Poly Butyl Cuprysil) grease or equivalent to
between pad retainer and pad. Install pad retainers and pads to
torque member.
CAUTION:
Securely assemble pad retainers so that they are not
being lifted up from torque member.
Both inner and outer pads have a pad return system on
the pad retainer. Install pad return lever securely to pad
wear sensor.
3. Install cylinder body to torque member.
CAUTION:
In the case of replacing a pad with new one, check a brake fluid level in the reservoir tank because
brake fluid returns to master cylinder reservoir tank when pressing piston in.
NOTE:
Use a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool) to easily press piston.
4. Install lower sliding pin bolt, and tighten it to the specified torque. Refer to BR-23, "
Components" .
5. Check front disc brake for drag.
6. Install tires to vehicle.

ASSEMBLY
1. Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant to piston seal, and install
them to cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on piston boot
securely into a groove on cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston boot.
3. Apply brake fluid to piston. Push piston into cylinder body by
hand and push piston boot piston-side lip into the piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press the piston evenly and vary the pressing point to pre-
vent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Install sliding pins and sliding pin boots to torque member.
5. Install torque member to steering knuckle, and tighten mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to BR-
23, "Components" .
CAUTION:
Do not allow oil or any moisture on all contact surfaces between steering knuckle and brake cali-
per assembly.
6. Press in piston until pads can be installed, and then install cylinder body to torque member.
7. Tighten sliding pin bolts to the specified torque. Refer to BR-23, "
Components" .

DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. Replace if there are.
Runout Inspection
1. Fix disc rotor to wheel hub using wheel nuts (2 or more posi-
tions).
2. Inspect runout using a dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in)
inside the disc edge.]
NOTE:
Before measuring, make sure that wheel bearing axial end play
is within the specification. Refer to FA X - 5 , "
WHEEL BEARING
INSPECTION" .
3. When runout exceeds limit value, displace mounting positions of
disc rotor by one hole. And then find a position of the minimum value for runout.
4. Replace or lathe disc rotor if runout is outside the specified value after performing the above operation.
(“MAD DL-8700”, “AMMCO 700 and 705” or equivalent.)
Thickness Inspection
Check thickness of the disc rotor using a micrometer. Replace disc
rotor if thickness is under the wear limit.
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE
Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to following procedure after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are
securely fitted.
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake for a few minutes to cool the brake.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc rotor are securely fitted. Runout limit : 0.035 mm (0.0014 in)
(with it attached to the vehicle)

Sliding Pin Bolt, Sliding Pin Boot
Check sliding pin bolt and sliding pin boot for wear, damage, and cracks. Replace if there are.
ASSEMBLY
1. Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant to piston seal, and install
them to cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
the piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on the piston
boot securely into the groove on cylinder body.

hand and push piston boot piston side lip into the piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press the piston evenly and vary the pressing point to pre-
vent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Secure piston boot with retaining ring.
CAUTION:
Make sure that boot is securely engaged in the groove on
cylinder body.
Do not reuse retainer ring.
5. Install sliding pin boot to torque member.
6. Install the cylinder body to torque member, and then tighten slid-
ing pin bolt to the specified torque. Refer to BR-29, "

Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral PositionNFS000Q4
In case of doing work that applies to the list below, make sure to adjust neutral position of steering angle sen-
sor before running vehicle.
: Required
–: Not required
CAUTION:
To adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor, make sure to use CONSULT-II.
(Adjustment cannot be done without CONSULT-II.)
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
2. Connect CONSULT-II and CONSULT-II CONVERTER to data link connector on vehicle.
CAUTION:
If CONSULT-II is used with no connection of CONSULT-II CONVERTER, malfunctions might be
detected in self-diagnosis depending on control unit which carry out CAN communication.
3. Turn ignition switch ON and touch the CONSULT-II screen in the order of “ABS”, “WORK SUPPORT” and
“ST ANG SEN ADJUSTMENT”.
4. Touch “START”.
CAUTION:
Do not touch steering wheel while adjusting steering angle
sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi-
mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform above operation.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then
stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “ECU INPUT SIGNALS”, and “STR ANGLE SIG” on CONSULT-II screen. Then
make sure “STR ANGLE SIG” is within 0
2.5. If value is more than specification, repeat steps 1 to 7.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM. ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit): Refer to BRC-23, "
ERASE MEMORY" . ECM: Refer to EC-100, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS"
(VQ35DE), EC-811, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" (VK45DE).
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.
