How to replace the brake pads of a Volkswagen Bora

Model: Volkswagen Bora MK 6 - Years 1998-2005
Part: Brake pads

Before we can start, we will need to check that the car has the first engaged and the handbrake on. So let's start by lifting the car with the special jack provided by the parent company and removing the wheel, using the bolt wrench which is also part of the standard kit of the car. Once the wheel has been removed, we will have reached the brake disc and its pads. We then proceed with removing the two plastic caps that cover the screws that secure the brake caliper. Next we will have to remove these screws. Once removed, we will be able to disengage the brake caliper from its support, thus reaching the worn pads, which we can remove simply by extracting them. To assemble the new pads and close everything, simply follow these instructions in reverse, and we will have completed the replacement correctly.
