Removal and Installation of Brake Pad: Installation

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Nissan Murano. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Attach the inner shim and shim cover to the inner pad and the outer shim to the outer pad.
  2. Push the piston in so that the pad is attached and attach the cylinder body to the torque member.
    NOTE: Using a disc brake piston tool (commercial service tool), etc., makes it easier to push in the piston.
    CAUTION:
    • By pushing in the piston, the brake fluid returns to the master cylinder reservoir tank. Watch the level of the surface of the reservoir tank.
    • When attaching the pad retainer, attach it firmly so that it does not float up higher than the torque member, as shown in the figure.
