A brake job, start to finish

  1. 01

    Ask for the front brake procedure.

    You get the steps, the caliper bolt torque, and the note about cleaning the hub face.

  2. 02

    Ask about the clip.

    "Is the pad retaining spring reusable on a 2019 CX-5?" The manual says replace; you order one.

  3. 03

    Ask how to bed the pads.

    The manual's bedding procedure, in plain language.

Do I need to know my engine code?+

No. Give the year, make and model; the assistant asks if it needs more.

Is my older car covered?+

Check the vehicle pages. Coverage from the mid-1990s is patchy; from 2005 it is broad.
