Model: Vauxhall Vectra Vectra C, MK 3 - Years 2002-2008
Part: Brake rotors

In this video tutorial, you will learn how to replace the rear brake discs on an Opel Vectra. First, lift the vehicle and remove the wheel bolts to take off the wheel: at this point, use a screwdriver to extract the spring of the caliper by prying it off and remove the screw covers of the caliper: loosen these screws with a socket wrench (rear screws). Move the caliper away from the bracket using a screwdriver and remove it. Using a 15 mm socket, loosen the bolts of the caliper bracket and take it off.
