Replacing Brake Pads on Fiat Punto mk2

Model: Fiat Punto MK 2, 188 - Years 1999-2011
Part: Brake pads

Loosen the wheel bolts of the affected wheel, lift the car, and completely unscrew them to remove the wheel. Once done, clean the fastening elements thoroughly with appropriate spray and a stiff brush. Use pliers to extract the small retaining clip, as shown in the video, then remove the lower pin and lift the brake pad support, which you can now easily remove. Clean the support and push back the brake piston so you can insert the new, much thicker pads. Close the clamp by refitting the support and remount the wheel, and you're done.
