Appreciation post: the Tuesday my brake job went smooth the whole way through
Honestly last Tuesday was the first time in months a brake job went clean from start to finish. My 2012 Civic needed rear pads and rotors, and every bolt came loose on the first try, no torch, no busted knuckles. I had the whole thing done in about 90 minutes in my garage in Akron, then bled the lines and the pedal felt perfect on the first pump. Usually I'm fighting one rusted caliper pin and making a parts run, so this felt like a gift. What's your go-to trick for keeping caliper pins from seizing up so I can repeat this?
