Replacing the brake pads

Model: Lexus RX Xu10, MK 1 - Years 1997-2003
Part: Brake pads

We lift the car with the jack, once the wheel has been disassembled, we begin to unscrew the bolts behind the caliper, once removed, we remove the caliper and place it on the hub. Using a flat head screwdriver, we remove the old tablets, detach the metal part attached to them and join it to the new ones, then we install the tablets. With a clamp we bring the brake cylinder back inside, then we re-assemble the caliper and tighten the relative bolts, at this point we can assemble the wheel again and proceed in the same way also for the remaining brakes to be replaced.

This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
