Operation: Replacement brake discs and rear brake pads

Raise the car on a lift or with a jack (in the latter case apply car stands for safety). Remove the wheel and the brake caliper from its support and the support itself (the fixing pins are located at the rear). Then unscrew the disc fixing pin on the hub and remove it. Clean the hub from any residual oxide present and apply the new disc by tightening the relative fixing pin. Attach the caliper support, apply the new pads and then the caliper and the pad retaining spring. Finally, reassemble the wheel and pump on the brake pedal until the latter offers the right resistance.
