How to Replace the Rear Brake Discs on a Toyota Rav 4 Series 3?

Model: Toyota Rav 4 MK 3, Xa30 - Years 2006-2013
Part: Brake rotors

Before starting any operation, open the cap of the brake fluid reservoir, then remove the rear wheel and, at the same time, lift the car on a workshop ramp or suitable axle stands. Separate the brake pads and disconnect the caliper. Remove the following components: brake caliper, pads, and caliper bracket. Now that the brake disc is free from the components covering it, you can extract it from its seat using a rubber mallet. Before installing the new brake disc, clean the surrounding components using suitable products, then follow the same procedure in reverse order to reassemble everything.
