ral Procedures
1. WARNINGS:
IF BRAKE FLUID IS TAKEN INTERNALLY, DRINK WATER
AND INDUCE VOMITING. GET MEDICAL ATTENTION
IMMEDIATELY.
WASH HANDS AFTER HANDLING BRAKE FLUID. IF BRAKE
FLUID COMES INTO CONTACT WITH THE EYES, FLUSH EYES
WITH COLD RUNNING WATER. IF IRRITATION PERSISTS SEEK
MEDICAL ATTENTION.
CAUTION: Remove brake flui d spillage immediately from
paint work with clean water.
Position vehicle on a four-post lift.
2. Op
en engine compartment and fit
paint work protection covers
to fenders.

3. NO
TE: Make sure the
brake-fluid level does not fall below the
fluid reservoir 'MIN' (minimum) mark when bleeding the brake
system.
Fill fluid reservoir to the 'MAX' (maximum) mark.

1. Raise front of vehicle and support on stands. Refer to section
100-02.
2. Remove wheel.

3. CAUT
ION: Tie caliper housing aside. Do not allow the
caliper housing to hang on the hydraulic hose, as this will damage
the hose.
Remove caliper housing from caliper carrier.
1. Remove anti-rattle spring.
2. Remove dust covers.
3. Remove guide pins.
Remove an
d tie caliper housing aside.
4.
Make sure that wheel
bearing en
d-float is correct. Refer to
specification section 204-01.

5. Measure brake d
isc run-out.
Inst
al
l brake disc to hub and secure with all wheel nuts,
tighten wheel nuts to 20 Nm in a diagonal sequence.
Posi
tion the gauge so that the pointer contacts the disc,
10 mm from its outer edge.
Slo w
ly rotate the disc one revolution, the disc run-out
must not exceed the specification. Refer to Specification
Section 206-03.
6. If the brake disc run-out exceeds specification, reposition the
brake disc on the hub and re peat the above procedure.
Continue repositioning the brake di sc until the run-out is within
specification.
7. If the brake disc run-out still exceeds specification, check the
hub face run-out.
8. Remove brake disc. Refer to procedure 70.10.12.
9. Measure hub face run-out.
Posi
tion the gauge so that the pointer contacts the hub
face.
Slo w
ly rotate the hub one revolution, the hub run-out

mu
st not exceed the specification. Refer to Specification
Section 204-01.
I
f the hub exceeds the maximum run-out specification
replace the hub. Refer to procedure 60.25.01.
10. NOTE: Make sure the brake disc and hub mating surfaces are
clean.
If the hub run-out is within sp ecification replace brake discs.
Refer to procedure 70.10.12.

WA
RNING:
BRAKE DUST, IF INHALED CAN DAMAGE YOUR HEALTH. ALWAYS REMOVE BRAKE DUST USING A VACUUM BRUSH. DO NOT USE A COMPRESSED-AIR LINE TO DISPERSE BRAKE DUST
INTO THE ATMOSPHERE.
CA
UTION:
Replacement of nuts and bolts: Various thread-locking devices are used on nuts and bolts
throughout the vehicle. These devices restrict the number of times a nut or bolt can be used. See
section <<100-00>> for information.
CA
UTION:
The Brembo caliper is aligned to the brake disc when it is first installed to the vehicle, therefore,
care must be taken not to disturb this alignment. When removing the caliper; remove the bolts
that secure the anchor bracket to the vertical link only. DO NOT loosen any other caliper bolts.
Raise front of vehicle and support on stands. Refer to section <<100-02>>.
2. Remove wheel. Refer to section <<74.20.05>>.

. Remove brake pads from caliper.
1. Remove 'R' clips.
2. Withdraw pins from caliper.
3. Remove anti-rattle spring.
4. Remove brake pads.

C
AUTION:
Only remove the bolts securing the caliper anchor bracket to the vertical link. Refer to caution
above for more information.
C
AUTION:
Do not allow the caliper to hang on the hydraulic hose, as this will damage the hose.
Remove caliper from vertical link. Remove bolts.

R
emove and tie caliper aside.
5. Make sure that wheel bearing end-float is within specification. Refer to specification section <<204-01>>.
6.
Measure brake disc run-out.
1. Install brake disc to hub and secure with all wheel nuts, tighten wheel nuts to 20 Nm in a diagonal sequence.
2. Position the gauge so that the pointer contacts the disc, between the disc's outer drill holes and the disc's outer edge.
 Slowly rotate the disc one revolution, the disc run-out must not exceed the specification. Refer to
Specification Section <<206-03>>.
7. If the brake disc run-out exceeds specification, reposition the brake disc on the hub and repeat the above
procedure. Continue repositioning the brake disc until the run-out is within specification.
8. If the brake disc run-out still exceeds specification, check the hub face run-out.
9. Remove brake disc.
