How to Replace the Brake Disc on a Peugeot 208

Model: Peugeot 208 A9, MK 1 - Years 2012-2019
Part: Brake rotors

Have you driven many miles and now need to replace the brake disc on your Peugeot? Good, you are in the right place. In this guide, I will explain how to do it quickly. Park your car with the handbrake on, lift the vehicle with a jack, and place safety stands. Meanwhile, loosen the wheel bolts. When the tyre is free, you can remove it. By turning the steering wheel to one side, you can access the screws behind the caliper; unscrew them. Now, use a lever to push back the old brake pads and retract the pistons. You can then slide off the caliper. Next, tackle the Torx screws to remove the caliper bracket. Remove the two pins in front of the disc, and you can finally slide off the disc. Insert the new part, and proceed to reassemble all parts in reverse order. Repeat the same work on the other side of the car.
