How do you change front brake pads on saxo vts?

Answer 1

Loosen wheel bolts, jack car up and support properly, remove wheel. Ok there's 2 ways you can do it, the first way is to remove the wire clip on the outside of the calliper, undo and remove the 2 slider bolts, then using a screwdriver, push the piston back into the calliper and you should be able to remove part of the calliper that holds the pads inplace. The other way which i do is after removing the road wheel, undo and remove the 2 19mm bolts that hold the calliper onto the hub assembly, push the piston back in using the screwdriver and then remove the whole calliper, now as the calliper is off and away from the disc there is a big gap between the pads(where the disc sat) and it allows you to move each pad to the centre of the calliper and out. Easy. then fit the new ones and follow instructions in reverse remembering to torque up the road wheel bolts to something like 65Lb/ft.
