Before starting, engage first gear and activate the handbrake of your Volkswagen Golf, then lift the front end. Begin by unscrewing and removing the wheel securing bolts, then remove the wheel itself. Next, unscrew and remove the bolts that secure the brake caliper, then detach and move the caliper away.

At this point, unscrew and remove the screws securing the brake disc. Once you have completed this step, remove the brake disc, and the disassembly will be complete.

To install the new brake disc, follow these steps in reverse, and you will have completed the replacement.
