hi, does any one know what is recommended torque force to be used when tightning brake calipers after brake change in 09 accord 2.4l. i have searched everywhere and i am getting conflicting results.

from what i gather 4 cyl 2009 accord it should be
fronts
26and 37 depending on the caliper brand.
rear 17 for all models.

can anyone confirm that?

also i have noticed that after i changed rear pads a year ago one of my rear rotors is showing uneven wear. it seems to be wearing off iner circle part of the rotor while outside part of the rotor is not touching the pads.

Tightening torque is as tight as you can get it (without snapping the bolt)

When you replaced pads did you lubricate caliper slides? Did you have any rear brake shudder before replacing the rear pads?

Without seeing the vehicle I can't really say much more, as I don't want to mislead you
