Today we will explain how to replace the brake pads of the Fiat 500 on your own. Let's start by removing the right front wheel and placing it under the vehicle, remove the spring that holds the caliper with a screwdriver and pulling it outwards we will have access to the screws that once removed will allow us to proceed with the replacement; keeping the caliper still, slide the two screws with a 7 mm Allen key. Using a flat-head screwdriver, push out the screws that hold the caliper.

With the help of a hammer, tap to remove the caliper and the brake pads.

Using a clamp, push the piston inward. Insert the new brake pads inside the piston and mount the caliper by following the reverse procedure.
