ATTENTION
HSV vehicles are equipped with a Supplemental Restraint System (SRS). An SRS consists of seat belt pre-
tensioners (fitted to all front seats), a driver’s-side air bag, a passenger’s-side air bag and right and left hand
side air bags. Refer to CAUTIONS, Section 12M, of the Holden WK Service Information before performing any
service operation on or around SRS components, the steering mechanism or wiring. Failure to follow the
CAUTIONS could result in personal injury or unnecessary SRS system repairs.

1 Purpose
The purpose of this section is to provide information on the Brake Systems fitted to HSV WK model. Details are given
where differences occur between the HSV models and standard Holden models. A series of instruction drawings
describe the design changes and indicate specific part numbers, fitting instructions and relevant notes for vehicle
servicing.
NOTE
If specific technical data on a HSV model is not
contained in this supplement, obtain data for that
model from Section 5A – Standard Brakes of the
WK Service Information. References are made
throughout this section to Holden Service
Information to assist in providing information for
specific serv ice operati ons .
When hoisting (or jacking) HSV models,
ensure that the lifting head of the hoist lifts on
the chassis before the arm of the hoist
contacts the side-skirt

2.1 General Information
Brake systems fitted to HSV WK model employ the vacuum boosted, four-wheel-disc concept operating through a
tandem master cylinder. This tandem arrangement provides separate braking systems to the front and rear wheels which
in turn, provides adequate braking (to the front or rear wheels) if a fault occurs in either system. HSV W K model is also
equipped with the BOSCH Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) as standard. Inspection, replacement and testing of the ABS
must be carried out in accordance with the procedures detailed in the relevant Holden Service Information.
Whenever any component of the ABS is
disturbed during service operations, it is vital
that the complete ABS is checked using the
procedure detailed in the relevant Holden
Service Information.

2.2 Service Operations
Although HSV brake systems have different fittings and components, the general service principles are the same as
those which apply to Holden standard brake systems. The important differences between Holden brake systems and
HSV systems are the component parts and the specified wear limits for those parts. Drawings of specific HSV brake
systems and component part numbers are included in this section and wear limits have also been specified where
required.
Pad Replacement
Refer to appropriate drawings in this section or in Holden Service Information. Ensure that the following important notes
are observed and replace brake pads in accordance with the procedures in the Holden WK Series Service Information.
Important Notes On Brake Pad Replacement
Do not remove mounting brackets unless damaged or for disc servicing.
Pads should be replaced if there is less than 3mm of lining material remaining or if pads are damaged.
Pads must be replaced as a full set of 4. Ensure pad material is correct specification. Do not mix pad material front
to rear. Use genuine HSV replacement parts to ensure correct pad material is used.
Before fitting new pads check that all pads are fitted with insulating material.
When replacing pads in Performance brakes, ensure that shims and spring are fully clipped into position so that they are
clear of the rotor. Carefully lower the body over the pads and bracket ensuring the pads are engaged with spring so that
they are free to slide. Ensure Piston Boot is not caught between the Piston and the inner pad. Fit new guide bolt through
the lower hole and tighten to a torque of 30-34 Nm.
Callip er Ov erhau l
Refer to appropriate drawings in this section or in Holden Service Information. Ensure that the following important notes
are observed and overhaul callipers as detailed in Section 5A-Standard Brakes of the W K series Service Information.
Notes On Calliper Overhaul
Do not remove the mounting brackets unless damaged or for disc servicing.
Remove the pistons by directing light air pressure into the brake hose port, and progressively increase until piston
is forced out of bore .
Caution is necessary to avoid physical
injury—Piston may be ejected with
considerable force due to air pressure. Use
packing to prevent piston damaging body of
calliper.
Brakes Page D-5

Brake Discs
Refer to appropriate drawings in this section or in Holden Service Information. Ensure that important notes are observed
and overhaul discs as detailed in Section 5A-Standard Brakes.
Do not remove mounting bracket from the
brake calliper unless the bracket requires
service. It is critical for safety that the bolts
holding the mounting bracket to the calliper if
removed, are correctly reinstalled.
Refer Drawing No. 041-030003 for assembly
requirements.
Brake Disc Wear Limits.
The minimum thickness for discs fitted to standard Holden brakes is cast in the hub of the disc and is specified in
Section 5A – Standard Brakes in the Holden Service Information. The minimum thickness for brake discs fitted to HSV
brake systems is stamped into the edge of the disc. For information, the new and minimum thicknesses of discs
used in HSV brake systems are tabulated below.

2.3 Service Parts
It is essential that genuine replacement parts be fitted to HSV brake assemblies. This is particularly important when
replacing brake pads because of the various types of lining material used. Complete brake assemblies, front and rear
discs, callipers and attachment parts have also been identified as replacement parts and these items are available from
HSV. These parts are listed in the following paragraphs or referenced in enclosed drawings.

Rear Callipers
Servicing procedures and servicing kits for the WK Performance Rear Caliper are exactly the same as for the standard
WK Holden Rear Caliper. Therefore, when servicing the WK rear caliper, refer to the procedures in the Section 5A-
Standard Brakes.
HSV Performance Rear Calipers use unique brake pads, with a thinner pad to suit HSV’s wider ventilated disc.
