- Today I replace the rear brake pads on a 2010 Skoda Yeti. The old pads were quite worn and in need of replacement. So join the journey with me.

Good detailed description and video. Another minor point that I would add is that when screwing the brake piston back in I try to spray a little silicon spray into the rubber sleeve of the piston so as to keep it malleable.
Good tip Tony. 👌 I'll use it when I finally get to the rear calipers
It’s also possible to move the disc by unscrewing the small holding screw that keeps it on the hub … then you’ve got a better access to clean where the sliders go. In theory when you are screwing the piston back in, you should also open the brake master cylinder as you’ll be pushing up the fluid level. I just wish I had your nice garage to work in.
thank you for the tip Tony. Garage still to be finished, will do an update vid sometime in future as work is progressing on that fron too.
Brilliant. Just as well I watched this first before committing. I forgot I didn't have the right caliper reset tool..
Glad the vid was of help.
Little tip, don't let your pads get too low. Mine were metal on metal, and due to the piston being too far out, my reset tool (as featured) was too long to fit in and work 😳
Great tip 👍 how did you get the piston pushed in when that occurred?
@@4WheelBuilds I didn't. It was as if the internal screw had come to the complete end of it's thread and locked. After much swearing and effort, I had to exchange the caliper ☹️
Lesson learned, I'll be changing the pads 3/4 through their life from now on.
Oh dang, good tip in that case. I'll look into it as to how the caliper could be saved in such a situation. As you say it lot of anger and swearing could be saved on such an occasion. 😀
Forgot to say, I changed the discs too whilst at it. You do not need to remove the carrier. Very easy job.
@@SqueekyBumsgood tip, I need to do my rear discs and pads on the VW Tiguan next
Nice video, but can I suggest buying a light for when you’re working. 👍🏻💂♂️🇬🇧
Thanks for the suggestion, looking into light and camera setup options. 👌
Great Vid as always. Quick question: Are your Ryobi drills available as a twin pack or 2 drills bought separately?
Keep up the good work. Thanks
Thx 1881Gordon. Drills I purchased separately never checked if they have a twin pack deal. I have seen some other tool combo packs from Ryobi so quite possible they might have one.
Pozdrawiam serdecznie :D
Thanks, but I'm not sure you should actually start your wheel bolts with the driver. Start with fingers, then use the power.
You are right, this could end up with a stripped bolt. Have you ever had that happen?
@@4WheelBuilds nope - but I've done plenty more dozy things...
@@m4cdemos would you like to share? Always keen on hearing experiences others have
@@4WheelBuilds schadenfreude's a terrible thing, you know...
No time - the stupid things I've done would bring the 'net to a standstill
@@m4cdemos haha sounds like there's many stories to be told 😅
Disks look like they could do with replacement too
indeed SirRowan, well spotted the discs are nearly due for replacement, but wanted to leave that for another video ;)
OMG....copper grease???
Yes, helps with the squeaks coming from the breaks 👏 Happy New Year!!!
Getting the piston back is the most difficult and you didn’t show it. Pointless.
Around the 6 min mark its explained how the caliper needs to be pushed back in and the process is also shown sped up, happy to hear constructive feedback how this could be better shown next time so it can be improved. Cheers
