Brake pads replacement

Model: Vauxhall Corsa Corsa D - Years 2006-2014
Part: Brake pads

Raise the car on suitable car stands eg, mount the front wheel (it is suggested to carry out this operation after the car has been stationary for a long time, so that the pads and the caliper have cooled down). Then unscrew the fixing pins of the brake calliper: just remove the lower pin and pivot on the upper one to lift the caliper; then remove the old pads, pry between the disc and caliper to retract the piston, insert the new pads and reassemble the caliper by properly tightening the pins. Pay attention to the first braking.

The safe lock is indeed an anti-theft system that prevents thieves from accessing the car. This device locks the doors, both externally and internally, when the driver activates the central locking remote control after leaving the vehicle. To permanently disable it, it is necessary to use a diagnostic program such as VCDS that we will connect to the vehicle through the ODBII port. 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.
