Oting Paladin (1st Generation): Rear Disc Brake Pad Replacement

The rear disc brake pads on the Oting Paladin should be replaced every 30,000-50,000 km depending on driving style and operating conditions. The procedure requires retracting the caliper piston before installing the new pads.

Difficulty: Medium Time: 40-60 minutes Steps: 12 Tools: jack, lug wrench, Torx T30 or T40 bits (depending on caliper type), flat-blade screwdriver or pry bar, caliper piston retraction tool (C-clamp or special wrench), shop rags

Part

  • 🔩 D10602HD0ACM (OE rear pads Comi One for Oting Paladin). Aftermarket equivalents are selected by brake disc and caliper size

Step by step

12 steps
  1. Park the vehicle on a level surface and engage the parking brake (if you are working on the front wheels) or place wheel chocks under the front wheels.
  2. Loosen the lug nuts on the rear wheel, raise the vehicle with the jack, support it on a jack stand, and remove the wheel completely.
  3. Inspect the caliper and find the two guide pin bolts (usually Torx T30 or T40) that secure the caliper bracket to the steering knuckle.
  4. Remove the lower caliper guide pin bolt (the upper one can stay in place) and swing the caliper upward, pivoting on the upper bolt. Hang the caliper from a wire or hook attached to a suspension component. Do not let the weight of the caliper hang on the brake hose.
  5. Remove the old pads from the caliper bracket and inspect the guide pins and dust boots. If the boots are worn or damaged, replace them.
  6. Press the caliper piston back into the cylinder using a C-clamp or a special tool. Note: if the rear calipers have an integrated parking brake (screw-type piston), retract the piston by turning it clockwise with a special cube-type piston wind-back tool.
  7. Clean the pad seats in the bracket and lubricate the caliper guide pins with high-temperature brake grease.
  8. Install the new pads in the bracket (friction material facing the brake disc), lower the caliper back into place, and tighten the guide pin bolt to 25-35 N·m (18-26 lb-ft) (check the exact value in the manufacturer's service manual).
  9. Install the wheel, tighten the lug nuts in a crisscross pattern to 100-120 N·m (74-89 lb-ft), and lower the vehicle.
  10. Repeat the procedure on the other rear wheel.
  11. After installation, press the brake pedal firmly 5-7 times to seat the pads. The pedal should become firm.
  12. Check the brake fluid level in the reservoir. Retracting the pistons raises the level, so if necessary, remove the excess with a syringe.

Common mistakes and warnings

  • Always replace pads in pairs on the same axle. For the first 200-300 km, avoid hard braking to allow the new pads to bed in. If the brake pedal feels soft or sinks to the floor after replacement, bleed the brake system. If the rear calipers have an electromechanical parking brake (EPB), put the calipers into service mode before starting work, using a diagnostic scan tool or the button on the dash panel (hold the EPB button for 5-7 seconds with the ignition on until you hear a beep).
