Rear Drum and Shoe Replacement

Model: Renault Clio Clio 2, MK 2 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Brake drums and shoes

To replace the rear drums and shoes, first lift the vehicle and remove the rear wheel (use axle stands and do not work under a vehicle supported only by a jack); then remove the cap at the centre of the drum, unscrew the underlying nut, release the handbrake, and extract the drum, possibly using a hammer or the appropriate puller; disengage the shoe support pins by pressing and twisting with pliers, unclip the springs, and remove the shoes; seal the brake fluid reservoir cap to prevent oil spillage during the removal of the shoe actuator cylinder; thoroughly clean the hub support and proceed in reverse with the installation of the new kit, which includes the cylinder and shoes: reset the handbrake cable adjustment before fitting the new shoes and ensure the springs are secured properly.

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.
