How to Replace Brake Pads on a Ford Fiesta

Model: Ford Fiesta Fiesta 6, MK 6, MK VI - Years 2008-2017
Part: Brake pads

Today, I will show you how to replace the brake pads on your Ford Fiesta. First, lift the car and remove the wheel. Next, unscrew the front bolts to release the brake caliper and the clip. Then, unscrew the bolts that keep the brake caliper tightly closed to free the pads so you can pull them out. Now, push the pistons all the way in using a screwdriver. Once done, you can insert the new pads (ensure they are correctly positioned and properly seated). Now, refit the caliper onto the disc by simply tightening the previously removed bolts. Repeat the same on the other side.
