To replace the front brake pads on a Volkswagen Polo, lift the car so that the front wheel is off the ground: you will need to remove the wheel by loosening its fixing bolts. Once the bolts are loosened, detach the wheel from the hub and unscrew the bolts that secure the brake caliper to its disc.

After the caliper is detached, remove the old pads and insert the new ones; finally, refit the caliper to the disc and install the wheel.
