Replace Front Brake Pads

Model: Toyota Avensis T250, MK 2 - Years 2003-2008
Part: Brake pads

Replacing the brake pads is a straightforward but delicate operation as the vehicle's safety can be compromised. Remove the wheel and undo the retaining nuts of the cylinders. Take out the cylinder assembly and carefully remove the worn pads with a screwdriver, ensuring not to scratch the brake disc. Clean the supports and refit the new pads, ensuring they are correctly seated in the supports. Use a puller to remove the cylinder and replace it with a new one. Reassemble the cylinder group, the caliper, and tighten the relevant bolts, then you can refit the wheel.
