You making things simpler for us man, thanks
Thanks alot for advice mate good video.
Great video, well explained. Will give it a go.
Nothing wrong with the old pads 75 quid wasted you still had around 25k left on the old ones
Cheers mate
Is it the same process for the rear wheels?
Does your car have a feature where it tells you that the pads need replacing?
Do you not have to undo the break fluid cap first aswell?
Hi, one thing l noticed you did was not show opening the bleed valve a bit so that when pushing caliper piston half way back inside that it won't contaminate the old dirty fluid with the clean ABS system fluid and costing more money in last job. Why l mentioned this is because many people will watch this without HAYNES manual and try to do it this way which increases the risk to ABS also chances of high pressure in brake cap reservoir that would lead to overflow when lid is still on and air sealed shut. Did you least bleeded front when put back on, or before?
Great video. Surprised how easy it is...however....I can’t undo one of the pad holder nuts. Like you said in the video sometimes they are very tight.
I’ve just been using a 10 inch long socket wrench. Do you think if I get a breaker bar around 18 inches this will make a difference.
Can’t believe I’m stuck at this hurdle
Try lingeybar better leverage
on the back pads ,do you wine the piston clockwise or anti clockwise to get it to go in.cheers
Clockwise pal. Hope thia helps
@@1NELIFE thanks
Do you have a link for the wind back tool you used?
Hi not got a link but i got it from machine mart of the shelf. Cheers
You can do this without a windback tool .I managed with a set of large pointed nose pliers applying firm pressure while turning clockwise . be careful not to slip and damage rubbers use plenty of wd40
I got that car too. Same colour and spec. Why does one side at the rear brake pads wear quicker than the other side. Makes a loud noise when driving. Mechanic said it isn’t worn brake pads but i said it is and i was right
hi thanks for the comments and advice. One pad wearing quicker than other on rear?? Could it be the handbrake is set too tight, its only on one side and if too tight will not fully disengage thus wearing down that side a bit quicker, as for noise could just be some shit or astone trapped in the disk guard..
What size is the wind back tool? I have the same exact car
Hi it’s a universal Vauxhall windback tool. It comes with 2 sizes which cover most cars.
You got to make sure that the friction part of the pad doesn’t get contaminated by oil. Just some advice :)
Dont worry about that, it soon burns off.
how much would all the brake pads be
Hi should be around £60, if you go on Euro car parts website and use the discount code you will get the lot for about 40. Hope this helps
@@1NELIFE Does that Brake Pad Fitting Accessory come with brake pad or do you have to buy separately ?
Hey man I getting sick of being scammed by mechanics in UK can't trust any of them
Why I must to change the clips
