How to Replace the Rear Brake Pads on a Ford Focus?

Model: Ford Focus MK 3 - Years 2011-2018
Part: Brake pads

To replace the rear brake pads on a Ford Focus, loosen the bolts securing the rear wheel and completely remove it. This will allow access to the brake caliper, which should be detached from the brake disc by loosening the appropriate securing bolts; once the caliper is removed from the disc, you can extract the pads from inside and replace them with new spare parts. Once the new pads are inserted, position the caliper onto the disc and install the wheel.
