FRONT DISC BRAKE
Revision: 2007 April2007 M35/M45
ASSEMBLY
1. Apply polyglycol ether based lubricant to piston seal, and install
them to cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston seal.
2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on piston boot
securely into a groove on cylinder body.
CAUTION:
Do not reuse piston boot.
3. Apply brake fluid to piston. Push piston into cylinder body by
hand and push piston boot piston-side lip into the piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press the piston evenly and vary the pressing point to pre-
vent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Install sliding pins and sliding pin boots to torque member.
5. Install torque member to steering knuckle, and tighten mounting bolts to the specified torque. Refer to BR-
22, "Components" .
CAUTION:
Do not allow oil or any moisture on all contact surfaces between steering knuckle and brake cali-
per assembly.
6. Press in piston until pads can be installed, and then install cylinder body to torque member.
7. Tighten sliding pin bolts to the specified torque. Refer to BR-22, "
Components" .

DISC ROTOR INSPECTION
Visual Inspection
Check surface of disc rotor for uneven wear, cracks, and serious damage. Replace if there are.
Runout Inspection
1. Fix disc rotor to wheel hub using wheel nuts (2 or more posi-
tions).
2. Inspect runout using a dial gauge. [Measured at 10 mm (0.39 in)
inside the disc edge.]
NOTE:
Before measuring, make sure that wheel bearing axial end play
is within the specification. Refer to FAX-5, "
WHEEL BEARING
INSPECTION" .
3. When runout exceeds limit value, displace mounting positions of
disc rotor by one hole. And then find a position of the minimum value for runout.
4. Replace or lathe disc rotor if runout is outside the specified value after performing the above operation.
(“MAD DL-8700”, “AMMCO 700 and 705” or equivalent.)
Thickness Inspection
Check thickness of the disc rotor using a micrometer. Replace disc
rotor if thickness is under the wear limit.
BRAKE BURNISHING PROCEDURE
Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to following procedure after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are
securely fitted.
Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake for a few minutes to cool the brake.
4. Repeat steps 1 to 3 until pad and disc rotor are securely fitted.Runout limit : 0.035 mm (0.0014 in)

Sliding Pin Bolt, Sliding Pin Boot
Check sliding pin bolt and sliding pin boot for wear, damage, and cracks. Replace if there are.

2. Apply rubber grease to piston boot. Cover the piston end with
the piston boot, and then install cylinder side lip on the piston
boot securely into the groove on cylinder body.

3. Apply brake fluid to piston. Push piston into cylinder body by
hand and push piston boot piston side lip into the piston groove.
CAUTION:
Press the piston evenly and vary the pressing point to pre-
vent cylinder inner wall from being rubbed.
4. Secure piston boot with retaining ring.
CAUTION:
Make sure that boot is securely engaged in the groove on
cylinder body.
Do not reuse retainer ring.
5. Install sliding pin boot to torque member.
6. Install the cylinder body to torque member, and then tighten slid-
ing pin bolt to the specified torque. Refer to BR-28, "
Compo-
nents" .

Adjustment of Steering Angle Sensor Neutral PositionNFS000Q4
In case of doing work that applies to the list below, make sure to adjust neutral position of steering angle sen-
sor before running vehicle.
×: Required
–: Not required
CAUTION:
To adjust neutral position of steering angle sensor, make sure to use CONSULT-II.
(Adjustment cannot be done without CONSULT-II.)
1. Stop vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position.
2. Perform “CONSULT-II Starting Procedure”. Refer to GI-38, "
CONSULT-II Start Procedure" .
3. Turn ignition switch ON and touch the CONSULT-II screen in the order of “ABS”, “WORK SUPPORT” and
“ST ANG SEN ADJUSTMENT”.
4. Touch “START”.
CAUTION:
Do not touch steering wheel while adjusting steering angle
sensor.
5. After approximately 10 seconds, touch “END”. (After approxi-
mately 60 seconds, it ends automatically.)
6. Turn ignition switch OFF, then turn it ON again.
CAUTION:
Be sure to perform above operation.
7. Run vehicle with front wheels in straight-ahead position, then
stop.
8. Select “DATA MONITOR”, “ECU INPUT SIGNALS”, and “STR ANGLE SIG” on CONSULT-II screen. Then
make sure “STR ANGLE SIG” is within 0±2.5°. If value is more than specification, repeat steps 1 to 7.
9. Erase memory of ABS actuator and electric unit (control unit) and ECM. ABS actuator and electric unit
(control unit): Refer to BRC-24, "
ERASE MEMORY" . ECM: Refer to EC-90, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS"
(VQ35DE), EC-792, "TROUBLE DIAGNOSIS" (VK45DE).
10. Turn ignition switch OFF.
