• Q: How to replace the Brake Calipers on 2007 Chevrolet Aveo?

  A: Vehicle service begins with support systems and marks that show wheel positions to the wheel hubs before brake wheel removal follows with proper brake dust protection. After removing the brake hose washers and fitting from its caliper connection it becomes necessary to disconnect the hose and apply plugs to both the caliper and the brake hose to stop fluid leaks and prevent contamination. First disconnect the caliper mounting bolts from the Steering Knuckle before removing the caliper assembly. Before fitting the slide pins you must apply silicone brake lubricant from gm p/n 89021536 or ac delco p/n 89021537 or canadian p/n 89021538. Fasten the caliper assembly with its mounting bolts to a torque of 95 n.m (70 lb ft). When installing the brake hose use washers for attachment to the caliper then tighten it to 40 n.m (30 lb ft). After wheel placement lower the vehicle until you obtain a firm Brake Pedal which ensures your safety before movement. Use the off engine state to perform multiple Brake Pedal applications which will locate the caliper piston and pads before proceeding with brake system bleeding.
