Thank you for this explanation. For the first time in my life (yes, there has to be a first time), I changed the brake pads on my car.
Excellent tuto
great this one
THANKS
and I confirm that putting the staples back up is a pain
Thanks for this guide!
Several things:
- dust cover? I didn't see any dust cover...
- the caliper screws with the 7 Allen key were VERY hard to remove: do not hesitate to use a hammer on the Allen key.
- I find it helps to use a syringe to remove a little brake fluid at the beginning to prevent it from overflowing. Work with the brake fluid reservoir open so it doesn't overflow at the caliper and have a good rag to catch the excess.
Good morning,
Thank you for the simple and effective tutorial.
