How to Replace Brake Pads on a Peugeot 207

Model: Peugeot 207 MK 1 - Years 2006-2015
Part: Checks and maintenance

First, open the bonnet and remove the brake fluid cap. Next, loosen the bolts on the front wheels, then lift the vehicle and secure it on axle stands to ensure it doesn't fall. Remove the wheels and use a wire brush to clean the calipers of dust and dirt. Separate the brake calipers; keep the caliper attached so the hose is not strained. Now, remove the brake pads. Clean the housing thoroughly with the same brush, then spray a bit of WD-40. Now, install the new pads, applying some grease on the tops to prevent squeaking. Clean the caliper by spraying WD-40, refit the bush, and then reinstall the caliper. Apply a bit more WD-40 on the disc. Now, you can remount the wheel and lower the vehicle. Job done.
