How to Replace the Front Brake Discs on an Opel Corsa C
Model: Vauxhall Corsa
Corsa C
- Years 2000-2006
Let's see how to change the brake discs on an Opel Corsa C: first, unscrew the cap of the brake fluid reservoir. Remove the front wheels. Then lift the front of the vehicle with a jack and secure it with axle stands. Do not rely too much on your jack. Clean the brake caliper with a wire brush and then spray it with WD-40. Separate the brake pads and unscrew the caliper mount, then remove it. Use a wire to secure the caliper to the suspension to prevent the system from depressurising. Check the brake caliper support, guide pin, and dust boots. Clean them and replace if necessary. Use a crowbar to remove the pads. Clean the brake caliper support with the wire brush, then spray with WD-40. Unscrew the brake caliper mount and remove the bracket from the caliper. Clean the brake disc fastening elements with the usual brush and WD-40. Unscrew the brake disc mounts. Clean the hub with the brush, then spray it with copper grease. Now you can install the brake disc, following the video instructions for tightening. Before reinstalling it, clean the caliper from dirt and dust, tightening it according to the video instructions. Press the brake caliper piston using a rewind tool. Now you can install the pads, then mount the calipers and secure them, tightening according to the video instructions. Where the disc contacts the wheel, spray with copper grease, then clean the surface of the disc with brake cleaner. You can put the wheels back on, lower the vehicle, replace the brake fluid cap, and close the bonnet. Job done.

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?
If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system. by ScegliAuto More videos
