Quest Minivan XE V6-2960cc 3.0L SOHC MFI (VG30E) (1998)
A.
Apply PBC grease (P/N 99990-00939) to the facing edge of the piston and to all facing surfaces between piston and pad. This will help
dampen noise-causing vibrations (see Figure 1).
CAUTION:
DO NOT get grease on the pad friction surface. If you do, wipe it off immediately with a clean shop rag, then sand the pad friction surface with
light-grit sand paper.
B.
Lubricate slide pins with silicon grease (P/N 999MP-AB002) and confirm smooth movement of the calipers (see Figure 1).
4.
Torque lug nuts to 98-118 N-m (10-12 kg-m, 72-87 ft-lb) using a torque wrench.
CAUTION:
DO NOT use an impact wrench to tighten lug nuts.
5.
Perform the following post-installation checks.
A.
Confirm that brake pads fit snugly in the calipers. Replace worn components as necessary.
B.
Test drive after the installation. Proper burnishing will influence brake performance including noise. Burnish brakes as follows:
1)
Drive the vehicle on a straight smooth road at about 30 mph (50 kph).
2)
Use medium brake pedal/foot effort to bring the vehicle to a complete stop from about 30 mph (50 kph). Adjust pedal/foot pressure so
that the vehicle stopping time is 3-5 seconds.
3)
Cool the brake system by driving at about 30 mph (50 kph) for approximately one minute without stopping.
4)
Repeat steps 1 to 3 between 3 to 5 times to complete the burnishing process.
6.
Confirm the procedures described in steps 2-5 above have been strictly followed. This will ensure customer satisfaction, safety and proper brake
performance.
