How do you change the front brake pads and rotors on a 1999 Nissan Sentra?

Answer 1

you need to take the wheel off, then remove the caliper from the knuckle once you have the calpier removed with a large pair of channel locks compress the caliper piston with the old pad still in place , remove the old rotor which should just slide off replace it with the new one,replace the pads in the compressed caliper, reinstall the caliper put the wheel back on and presto you are finished but before you put the car in any gear make sure you pump the brake pedal to seat the brakes again because remember you compressed the piston . good luck be safe use jack stands and block your wheels get a manual also it helps
