In this video, learn how to replace the brake pads on your Nissan Qashqai J10. First, lift the car or the wheel of the brake that needs replacing. Then, using a 21mm wheel socket, unscrew all the bolts of the tyre and remove the tyre.

Once removed, use a flat screwdriver to open the brake caliper by inserting the screwdriver into the appropriate holes. Next, use a 17mm socket and a 14mm spanner to unscrew the retaining bolts of the pad. Once the bolts are unscrewed, remove the pad block, and then remove the pads with the help of a flat screwdriver.

Now, insert the new pads, and it is advisable to clean the pad block with a brush and brake cleaner. Reposition the pad block and re-tighten the bolts with the tools previously used to unscrew them.

Once tightened correctly, reposition the wheel and screw in the bolts. At this point, the procedure is complete.
