Title: Rear brakes i30cw (DIY)
Post by: sundiz on November 14, 2015, 19:54:47
I found an excellent video from youtube.

:link: Hyundai i30cw Bremsscheibenwechsel hinten + Bremsbacken + Handbremseinstellung - YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6PkDTLyrX4)

I did not expect to understand so much about the commentary, but actually I understood "most" of it. I hated german classes in school but I guess 8 years of studying it actually paid off after all  :D. Even if you don't understand a word, the video shows it all.

@ 5 min where he use the hammer on the brake disc: To remove the disc like that it have to be brand new discs or the handbrake isn't adjusted very well. When changing the discs on mine I had to adjust the brake pads before I could move the disc outwards.
There's actually two threaded holes you can use to drive the disc out with..  :P

Do you actually have to change the brakes on an I30?

Never touched them on the Cw

Well, at 238.000 km the rear discs was worn below minimum allowed thickness. I think that's fair enough..  :P
