How to Replace the Front Brake Pads on an Opel Tigra

Model: Vauxhall Tigra MK 2 - Years 2003-2009
Part: Brake pads

In this guide, we will cover the steps to remove and replace the front brake pads on an Opel Tigra. First, lift the vehicle and start by removing the front wheel; then use a lever on the caliper piston to push it back, unscrewing the two rear screws of the caliper to remove it from the disc, as shown in the video. At this point, remove the old front brake pads, cleaning the caliper of any residual dirt; install the new original brake pads, refitting the brake caliper onto the disc and finally the wheel!
