How to Replace the Front Brake Pads on an Opel Corsa

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

Before you begin, ensure the car is in first gear and the handbrake is engaged on your Opel Corsa. Next, unscrew and remove the cap from the brake fluid reservoir located in the engine bay. Start by lifting the front of the car. Then, unscrew and remove the bolts securing the front wheels, and take off the wheels. Once done, unscrew and remove the bolts holding the front brake calipers, then remove the calipers themselves. This will give you access to the brake pads, which you can now remove, completing the disassembly. To fit the new pads and reassemble everything, simply follow these instructions in reverse, and the replacement will be complete.
