Hello all, my 2009 Camry Hybrid is in need of new rear rotors and pads and have decided to do the work myself. In all the videos I've watched, people knowingly set the parking brake to where there is a small amount of contact between the new rotor and parking brake (you can hear the contact when they spin the rotor) . I would have assumed to back it off until NO sound is heard, but would love to hear from knowledgeable folks what might be the best practice. If it's any help, this car has a pedal- actuated parking brake. Thanks!
EDIT... I am referring to when they put the rotor on and the parking brake is NOT engaged. What should be the proper "clearance" when the parking brake is NOT engaged.
