First, lift the vehicle with a jack on the side of your choice, remove the nuts, and take off the wheel. Using the correct spanner, loosen the bolts holding the caliper, which contains the worn pads.

Open the caliper once removed from the mount, take out the worn components, and push the piston back to its starting position. Place the two new pads in the caliper and refit it by tightening the two bolts at the top and bottom.

Next, ensure that you have done this correctly by checking that the brake disc rotates freely without obstruction. Then move on to the second front wheel and follow the same instructions.
