How to replace the front brake pads of the Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 5, MK 5, MK V - Years 2002-2008
Part: Brake pads

Today we will see the process of how to disassemble and replace the front brake pads of the Ford Fiesta. First, we lift the car and remove the front wheel; then we unscrew the fastening screws of the front brake caliper, applying pressure on the caliper piston to retract it, as shown in the video. At this point, we clean the brake caliper from any remaining dirt, installing the new front brake pads; we reassemble the brake caliper on the disc, carrying out the same operation for the replacement of the other front pads.
