Replacement of brake pads on Audi A1

Model: Audi A1 8X, MK 1 - Years 2010-2018
Part: Brake pads

In this very useful video guide today, we can see the entire step-by-step procedure for replacing the front brake pads on an Audi A1. We start the procedure by removing the front wheel of the car, then we remove the two rubber caps located on the back of the caliper and unscrew the two fixing screws behind them using a 7mm hex key. After that, we push back the brake piston and detach the caliper from the disc, then we retract the piston completely, remove the old pads, replace them with a new pair, and finally reassemble everything following the reverse procedure.
