One of the most important parts for the safety of your vehicle is the braking system. This guide shows how to change the brake pads for those with a basic understanding of mechanics.

Brake pads are a crucial component that should be checked regularly. Use a jack to lift the car on the side where you want to change the pads.

First, remove the wheel. Using a ratchet spanner will make the job easier, and you will need a pair of pliers to pull the pads out of their housing.
