Replacement of Rear Discs and Pads

Model: Renault Laguna Laguna 3, MK 3, MK III, Laguna III, X91 - Years 2007-2015
Part: Brake rotors

To replace the rear discs and pads (when replacing the discs, always replace the pads), lift the vehicle on a ramp and remove the rear wheel; remove the protective caps from the caliper mounting pins and unscrew them to remove the caliper and the old pads; then remove the caliper bracket, take off the cap in the centre of the disc and unscrew the nut underneath to remove the old disc and install the new one after cleaning it of protective oil; tighten the central nut and apply the cap, reassemble the caliper bracket, retract the piston using the appropriate tool that rotates it, insert the new pads and refit the caliper.

How to Dismantle the Heating Radiator on a Mini Cooper

Let’s see how to dismantle the heating radiator on a Mini Cooper. First, remove the plastic cover of the centre tunnel (located under the centre tunnel on the left). Unscrew the securing screws with a screwdriver, and remove the black plastic cover that hides the heating radiator. Once all the described operations are completed, move to the engine bay: remove the plastic engine cover and disconnect the two hoses (unscrew the securing clips if present) of the radiator that goes into the cabin, allowing the fluid to drain. Disconnect the radiator from the pipes inside the cabin. Work in reverse for all the assembly steps.
