Replacing the brake discs and pads on this car model is straightforward since the pads are secured to the caliper with pins, making removal easy; therefore, lift the vehicle on a lift, remove the front wheel, use a pin punch to extract the retaining pins of the pads from the caliper, and remove the respective spring; then, remove the caliper complete with the bracket and the disc mounting bolt; clean the disc seat on the hub with a wire brush and apply grease before installing the new disc, cleaning it of protective oil; then reassemble the caliper, insert the new pads, and complete the installation by applying the spring and pins.
