I just did this job on both my back wheels for the first time doing work on my car using nothing but this video and it came out great. Saved me $1500 after parts from what the dealership quoted me. Thanks!

I have never seen a better video than this. So well explained and everything gets shown and explained! I'm just a novice at working on my car but this video made it seem simple to do!

One of the most important steps is not mentioned at all in the video, it is extremely important to monitor your brake fluid reservoir while bleeding brakes, especially with a new caliper. If your reservoir gets depleted you'll just pump a ton of air into your brake lines which is a major pain to remedy. I would hazard a guess that the reservoir needed to be topped off at least a couple of times to fill that new caliper with brake fluid. It's also easier, and cleaner, to check to see if you've gotten all the air out if you put a clear hose over the bleeder nipple while your bleeding.

If you don't have the tool to remove the e-brake, there is a hack that will work. Take an OLD 13mm wrench, and cut a notch out of the closed end approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide with cut-off blade on an angle grinder . This will allow the wrench to slip over the cable, and to compress the tabs. Figured this out after fighting with the first caliper for 1/2 an hour.

I have a 2009 vibe. I slid the closed side of a 14 mm wrench around the multi point clip that holds the e brake on. I pinched it on with pliers . Squeezed with one side of pliers on the wrench and the other side against the mount . Came right off

Thank you for this video. Good explanations and perfect length. Similar to the step at 5:40 when the parking brake cable is released through a notch, my 2010 Matrix doesn't have that notch. I can't find a video on how to compress 6 one-way catches which allow the cable to be installed easily by pushing it through a hole, but not so easy to remove. UPDATE...I released the parking brake cable tab using the closed end of a 14mm wrench...wiggling it back and forth over the tabs while pulling and eventually it cleared the hole in the fastening point.

What is the tool you are using to release the emergency brake cable? Is that something you sell?
