Video tutorial
On the Opel Vivaro, the work begins by securing the vehicle: in the video, the front wheel is lifted and the front end is supported on jack stands, allowing for a relaxed working pace. Once the wheel is removed, the brake caliper and disc are easily accessible in the wheel arch. At this point, work is done on the caliper: the fasteners are released, creating space to remove the old brake pads. The process also includes a cleaning step in the area of the caliper and bracket before moving on to the installation of the replacement parts. Before inserting the new pads on the Opel Vivaro, the caliper piston is pushed back using a tool, slowly, to create the necessary space for the thickness of the new pads. When the piston is retracted, the new pads are placed in the same position as the old ones, and the caliper is repositioned, securing the fasteners. At the end of the work on the Opel Vivaro, the wheel is remounted and tightened, and then the vehicle is lowered to the ground.

How to Replace the Glow Plugs in the Fiat Ducato 2.3 Multijet?
Glow plugs, as the name suggests, raise the temperature of the engine in diesel vehicles to allow for easier starting. The manufacturer, in this case, Fiat for the Ducato 2.3 Multijet, specifies how often they should be replaced, and a warning light will illuminate when it's time. This work is carried out under the bonnet. First, remove the upper engine cover, then lift the coil and, using a socket wrench of the appropriate size, unscrew the glow plug to remove it from the base, followed by installing the new one. by ScegliAuto More videos
