This video illustrates how to replace the brake pads on a Renault Clio. First, remove the rear wheel after positioning the vehicle on a jack. Once you locate the brake caliper, use a 12-13 mm spanner and another 16-17 mm spanner to loosen the bolts and free the caliper.

In this case, the pads are almost completely worn, and if not replaced, the friction could even damage the discs. Before fitting the new pads, you must expand the pistons inside the caliper (using a rewind tool).

After inserting the new pads, retrace your steps. Finally, pump the brake pedal a few times to ensure contact between the new pads and the cylinder.

How to Activate the Disabled TRC on the Toyota Yaris?

As the video clearly shows, disabling or activating the traction control (TRC or ESP) on the Toyota Yaris is very simple. By default, the traction system activates every time the vehicle is started. To disable it, simply press the button depicting a skidding car located in the centre of the vehicle where the controls are, such as the hazard lights and the radio, but near the handbrake. Once disabled, the TRC off light will illuminate on the dashboard. To reactivate it, just press the same button again.
