How to replace the rear brake pads on an Audi A1
Model: Audi A1
8X, MK 1
- Years 2010-2018
In this video, we see how to replace the rear brake pads of an Audi A1 with a mechanical parking brake: first, we remove the rear wheels, simply unscrew the upper bolt of the caliper, and then the one at the bottom; we lever to move the caliper away from the disc and the pads will fall to the ground on their own. Before reassembling the new pads, however, we will need to retract the piston, and for this we will need a kit, which we can purchase for example on eBay with the code 176862442940 at a price of 18.24 euros, free delivery. We insert the retractor inside the caliper, and tighten it until it reaches the lower dead point. At this point, we can put the new pads, bring the caliper back to its place and tighten both bolts. We can reassemble the wheel, do the same job on the other side and then press the brake pedal several times to return the piston to its place.

How to Bleed the Clutch on a Renault Clio?
To bleed the clutch on a Renault Clio, open the bonnet to access the components located in the engine bay: here, you will need to undo the screws that secure the battery in its housing, the intake manifold, and the coolant reservoir. This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container. by ScegliAuto More videos
