Porsche 996 911 Rear Brake Pad & Rotor Replacement DIY (1999-2005 Porsche 911 Carrera)

►While front brake pads and rotors typically get all the love, replacing your Porsche 996 911 rear brake pads and rotors is equally as important.

The rear brakes on the Porsche 996 911 typically last between 30,000 and 50,000 miles and should be inspected upon every front brake change. What you're looking for on inspection is brake pads with less than recommended minimum thickness, warped rotors, which you will typically feel when braking from high speeds, or worn rotors that have developed deep grooves or a lip around the edge.

Our Porsche 996 911 rear brake kits here at FCP Euro come with everything you need to replace the rear brake pads and rotors at home in your garage or driveway. Included in the kit are the pads and rotors themselves, the brake pad shims, wear sensors, and all new hardware.

Follow along as Michael Hidalgo takes us through the step-by-step DIY process of replacing the rear brakes on his Porsche 996 911.
