How to Change the Rear Brake Pads on a Ford Focus

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Brake pads

First, remove the wheel on the side where you need to replace the brake pads. Ensure your vehicle is supported on appropriate jack stands. Next, remove the two bolts on the rear of the brake. This will allow you to detach the brake pads by removing the spring that holds them in place at the front. Now, remove the piston lock to extract the pads. Finally, install the new pads and repeat the process on the other side if necessary, and you're done!
