Replacement of front brake pads for Mini Cooper

Model: Mini Mini R56, R57, R55 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Brake pads

Today's step-by-step instructions will allow us to disassemble and replace the front brake pads of the Mini Cooper. First, we lift the car and start by removing the front wheel; then we unscrew the fastening screws of the front brake caliper, removing it from the disc, pressing on the caliper piston to retract it. At this point, we remove and replace the brake pads with new ones, inserting them in the correct direction; we clean the caliper from any remaining dirt, attach it to the disc and tighten the two fastening screws correctly!
