Let's see how to change the front brake pads on the Fiat Panda III.

Model: Fiat Panda MK 3, 319 - Years 2012-2024
Part: Brake pads

To replace the front brake pads of the Fiat Panda III, we start by opening the brake fluid cap, loosening the wheel bolts, and then lifting the vehicle. We remove the wheel and turn the brake disc outward. We insert a flathead screwdriver between the old pad and the caliper; we leverage it to push back the piston, creating space for the new pads. We remove the support spring, take off the caps from the caliper bolts, unscrew the two Allen bolts of the caliper, and remove the caliper without pulling on the hose. We take out the old pads with a screwdriver, clean the bracket with a wire brush, apply copper grease only on the edges of the new pads, mount the pads on the piston side, and reattach the caliper by hand-tightening the bolts, then tightening them with a torque wrench. We put the caliper caps back on, reattach the support spring, and repeat everything on the other side. We reassemble the wheels, lower the car, and screw the brake reservoir cap back on.
