Brake pads replacement

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa A - Years 1982-1993
Part: Brake pads

Raise the car on suitable car stands and remove the front wheel (loosen the pins before lifting the car); unscrew the fixing pins of the brake caliper, remove the old pads by moving the caliper back (the rear pad will come off after removing the disc); unscrew the disc fixing screw and remove it from the hub; insert the new rear pad with the relative fixing spring, apply the new disc (or the same if still efficient) and then insert the front pad with the relative spring. Finally reassemble the calliper by tightening the relative fixing pins.

Then wait for the connection and recognition of the control unit and then select the blocks present and locate the safe lock to disable it. And the job will be completed.
