Model: Fiat Panda 169, MK 2 - Years 2003-2012
Part: Brake drums and shoes

Loosen the bolts on one of the rear wheels and lift the vehicle on this side, then place a suitable safety jack. Remove the wheel after unscrewing the bolts. To remove the drum, simply unscrew the two bolts with a 12 mm socket. Disconnect the brake fluid pipe by unscrewing the screw. Remove the central round cover by tapping the slot with a medium flat screwdriver. Using a 32 mm socket, unscrew the bearing bolt now exposed and extract it. Unscrew the two screws now accessible with a 6 mm Torx. Follow the procedure in the video to remove the shoes and you're done. The removal of the drums and shoes is similar on almost all car models.
