My mechanic told me that my brake rotors were groovy, so I said "Far out!" He replied, "No, that's your front end alignment." Bummer, man.

Scotty is a gift from god. I’ve legit saved about $500+ just learning from Scotty how to do maintenance on my car. Thank you 🙏

1 of few things I've learned about working on your car is NEVER let the brake calipers hang by the brake lines (unless you plan on replacing those too).

[VKSgtSLaughter]

YOU FORGOT... to grease the most important part, the brake caliper slider pin/bolts. The majority of dragging brake problems is caused by the slider pin/bolt seizing up from being rusty, or not having enough grease.
Even still, good video!

Scotty, edited out the part where he realized that the parking brake was on while trying to remove the rear rotor.. LOL!

[louisjantzen]

Minor but *important* detail, Scottie:
When it's all put back together, *before* starting the car or moving it:
*PUMP THE PEDAL.*

That will 'seat' the new pads (or shoes on drum brakes) and avoid nasty surprises, like the pedal going to the floor on your first drive.
Also keep an eye on the fluid level.

I guess I missed what brake pads should be illegal on your car... Still, you missed two important items. The first is cleaning and lubricating the caliper pins. If you fail to do that, the pads tend to wear on the piston side. The second is the parking brake. You didn't even check the shoes, located inside the rear rotor.

I live in California. I feel like driving my car to Houston and having Scotty working on it. There’s nothing wrong with it, I just want Scotty to work on it.

I am watching this from Quarantine/Lockdown in NYC. Scotty's consistently energetic voice is so calming as the body count goes through to the roof here. Thnx Scotty, a much needed distraction from the constant monotony of bad news.

[bryanwoo]

This reminded me of when my brother was trying to get the rear rotors off with the e-brake on😄

[dustinpomeroy]

I always coat the hub face with anti seize, up here if it's a return customer you'll thank yourself later

[bradyaradgamer]

Scottys old intro i like it as much as the other intro

Scotty is "Essential Services" in these times.

My parents had a Tercel that they would leave in the bad parts of town in hopes that someone would steal it, but no one did and it never broke down!

“The crows are watching today.”

Scotty is my spirit animal.

[fightnight]

My favorite Scotty moment is any bolt that he defeats with the sigh UUGGGHHH 😆

[sidharthchand]

Once I thought I had to change my brakes they just had to be adjusted. My brake pedal was going almost all the way to the floor but luckily I had an honest mechanic

[michaelcocquyt]

I appreciate your sympathy for us up north working on our cars with my vehicles in western New York just about every removal of a bolt involves a hammer
