How do you change rear brake pads on a 2000 beetle?

Answer 1

Materials list:

Bucket

Jack

Tire Iron

wrenches

First thing you will do is pop the tires. once they are lose you will jack the car up off the ground and remove them.

Next you will see the pad housing attached to the roter. This is attached to the brake line, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES remove the break line. You will set the bucket next to the housing face down on the ground (this is to have something to set the housing on).

Remove the brake pads and set them on the bucket. There may be some small pins to help hold the pad, do not lose.

Simply take the worn pads off. Sometimes you will have to pry them a bit with a flat head but do not "force" it.

Put the new pads on.

Replace all the stuff and your done.
