How to Replace the Front Brake Pads on a Nissan Altima

Model: Nissan Altima L33 - Years 2013-2018
Part: Brake pads

To replace the front brake pads on a Nissan Altima, lift the car with a jack so that the corresponding wheel is not in contact with the ground. Once the wheel is lifted, loosen the bolts that secure it to the hub and remove it to access the components behind it. Here you will find the brake caliper, which contains the pads: by unscrewing the mounting screws, you can detach the caliper and slide out the pads inside. Then, install the new replacement parts by reassembling all the previously removed components.
