No.
Put emergancy brake on, then jack up the front enfd remove tires, use a 3/8 Allen tool to remove the caliper mounting bolts. Then remove the brake caliper, and remove pads from caliper. Next push piston caliper into the caliper, reinstall the caliper. Re install the front wheels, lower the vehicle, pump the brakes until they are hard once again, and your ready to drive again.
Driving with a loose brake caliper is not safe. It can lead to decreased braking performance, uneven braking, and potential loss of control of the vehicle. It is important to have the brake caliper properly fixed by a professional mechanic before driving the vehicle.
No, it is not safe to drive with a loose brake pad in the caliper as it can affect the braking performance of the vehicle and potentially lead to brake failure. It is important to have the brake pad properly secured to ensure safe driving.

Pretty easy actually. First you take off your tire at the back of the caliper there are two caliper bolts remove those and the caliper should come off the unscrew your brake hose
To change the rear brake pads on a VW Transporter, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the rear wheels. Next, remove the caliper bolts and carefully slide the caliper off the rotor while supporting it to avoid stressing the brake line. Replace the old pads with new ones, ensuring they are properly seated, then compress the caliper piston using a brake tool before reattaching the caliper. Finally, reassemble everything, and pump the brake pedal to set the pads before taking the vehicle for a test drive.
There are two bolts that go through the caliper. They can be seen from the back side (toward the center of the vehicle) and require an "allen wrench" to remove them. Once the bolts are loosened you'll need to work them all of the way out so that you can remove the caliper. Then the caliper can be nudged and persuaded to come off. To put it all back together, compress the caliper piston first and use disk brake lube on the bolts and the point where the two halves of the caliper slide across each other.
It takes a 7mm hex.
To change the brakes on an Opel Corsa 1.3, first, ensure the vehicle is on a level surface and secure it with wheel chocks.
