Part: Brake pads

The instructions in this guide will show us how to disassemble and replace the rear brake pads of the Volkswagen Jetta.

At this point, we will remove the old rear brake pads, cleaning the caliper of any residual dirt; then we will install the new brake pads, finally reassembling the caliper and the wheel!
