200 Series Brake Job - Part Numbers, Torque and How-To (1 Viewer)

[Sandroad]

@Romer , I don’t think this consolidated info on a common job is in the FAQs. Maybe consider adding it?

I would recommend a full brake fluid replace at least every 100K miles. If you tow a lot or live in an extremely humid climate you might want to do this more often than 100k.

This. For sure. I don't drive as much as some, but I change mine every 2-3 years regardless of mileage. It's humid around me often.

I use DBA Pads and Rotors. Nothing wrong with stock, just what I prefer

• DBA DB1857XP Rear Brake Pads
• DBA DB1838XP Front Brake Pads
• DBA 42722S Front T-Slot T3 4000 Series Rotor
• DBA 42723S Rear T-Slot T3 4000 Series Rotor

Thank you for this thread. I drive a ton - 21k since I bought my ‘15 200 since May 2024 - and expect to start towing in the future. I was planning on starting the brake upgrade research this spring. I am also working through the ‘new to me’ list and planning on doing a leveling and suspension refresh when doing the brakes - and adding the complete brake fluid flush to the list.

This has been a topic of conversation in the part number request thread, so I figured I would start one dedicated to 2013-2016+ 200s, but we can certainly add 08-11 and turn this into a mega thread.

I have a 13 and and 16 that will be getting new pads (also new rotors on the 2016). Below is a list of part numbers and torque values compiled from the other thread. Thanks to @Sandroad, @OGBeno and @bloc for this data. Notify me of any misinformation and I will get the thread updated. There are some redundancies in p/ns since only the front rotor changed with the 2016+. Note the torque value differences between the 2013 and 2016+.

Please add any tips, tricks, guides (youtube or otherwise) or personal SOPs to this thread!

The question I have at this point is, does the banjo hardware need to be messed with at all and can the brake/rotor job be done without disconnecting the caliper? Is there fluid loss if you separate the line from the caliper?

Did the 2016 rear brakes parts change to larger bolts as well? Why are the torque values so much different from 2013 to 2016 on the rear? The terminology between the 2013 and 2016 examples doesn't exactly line up, but it looks like just 1 rear value changed if you move some stuff around.

On 2016 you call out the rear slide pin to be 65 ft lbs and on the 2013 you have the rear caliper bolt as 65 ft lbs. Guessing these are actually the same bolt and should both be the slide pin bolt.

Then for the 2016 you have the rear caliper bolt listed as 114 verses the caliper bracket bolt at 70 ft lbs on the 2013.

Good question.

I only had to remove the caliber bolts to get the new pads in. I did not need to remove the slide pin/bolt.

The torque did go up quite a bit in the 2016, but I believe it’s the same bolt for all years. I think the FSM says these are one use, but I reused them this time. I did have to buy a new torque wrench to achieve the prescribed torque on the 2016 front caliper bolt. Always like an excuse to buy a new tool.
