Removing Front Brake Pads on a Ford Transit

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Brake pads

Are the front brake pads worn? Let's look at removing the pads from the brake caliper on the Transit. Remove the wheel (using a socket spanner or air drill) with the respective pins. Unscrew the caliper's locking pin at the rear and remove it from the wheel support. Use a screwdriver to detach the pads from the wheel hub caliper. Secure the new pads in the caliper. Reattach the brake caliper with the support onto the brake disc, tighten all the pins, and reinstall the wheel. Prepare to perform the same operations on the other calipers present on the Ford Transit. Top up the oil if necessary.

This will allow you to locate the pipe through which the brake fluid flows: by inserting the other end of the pipe into a container, you can press the clutch pedal to expel all the fluid until it fills the container.
