Inspection and Installation

1. Inspect the brake pad protector and brake pad retaining pins for damage and/or excessive wean Replace if necessary.





2. Inspect the area of the brake caliper piston and dust seal for leaking brake fluid or damage.





3. If necessary, rebuild the caliper following the procedures in the appropriate Hyundai Shop Manual.





4. Because the caliper is a floating type, the torque plate shafts should be kept clean or the caliper and bushing may wear prematurely. Remember to clean the torque plate shafts.





5. Check the brake disc for wear, or warpage. Deep scratches, grooves, signs of excessive heat and excess runout indicate that the disc should be resurfaced.





6. However, if the resurfacing operation requires the removal of excess disc material and results in a disc that is thinner than the service limit shown below, the disc must be replaced.

Thickness of Disc

Standard Value: 13.0 mm (0.510 in.)

Service Limit: 11.4 mm (0.450 in.)





7. NOTE:
It is important that the front brake discs are equal in size. Therefore, if it is necessary to resurface a front disc, it is important to resurface both discs an equal amount. Where disc replacement is required, replace both discs. Never resurface or replace just one (1) disc. Keep the set identical. For disc removal procedures, refer to the appropriate Hyundai Shop Manual.





8. CAUTION:
Before installing new brake pads, make certain that all oil and grease is cleaned from the brake disc.





9. CAUTION:
The pads for the right and left wheels must be replaced at the same time. Never "split" or intermix brake pad sets. All four pads must be replaced as a complete set. If the old pads are worn, it will be necessary to push the piston back into the caliper using SST 09581-11000. This will provide sufficient clearance to install the new pads.





10. Install new brake pads and a new anti-squeal shim.

NOTE:
The shim must be installed only between the outer pad and the caliper.





11. Reinstall pad retaining pins, making sure that each pin goes through the outer caliper, anti-squeal shim, both brake pads and into the receiving holes of the inner caliper.





12. Install new K-spring and M-clip, making sure that each end of the M-clip goes through the holes in the upper and lower brake pad retaining pins.





13. Make sure that the K-spring is hooked over the inner pad tab and that the M-clip ear goes through the outer pad locating hole as shown.





14. Reinstall the pad protector as shown.





15. Make sure that the securing tabs are clipped over each of the pad retaining pins as shown.





16. Install wheel and torque nuts to the -appropriate specification.

Wheel Nut Tightening Torque

Steel Wheel: 50-57 lb-ft (7-8 kg-m)

Aluminum Alloy Wheel: 65-72 lb-ft (9-10 kg-m)

CAUTION:
Use only a torque wrench! Do not use an impact wrench to tighten wheel nuts. This type of wrench often leads to overtorquing, which may damage the wheel nuts and studs and/or the wheel.





17. Show that the brake repair has been completed by making a center punch mark over the last VIN digit on the engine compartment ID plate.
