My Vauxhall Vivaro's brakes are squeaking and I suspect it's time to replace the brake pads. Can anyone provide a step-by-step guide on how to do this?
ReplyHi Matt, replacing brake pads on a Vauxhall Vivaro is a fairly straightforward process. Here are the steps you need to follow:
First, make sure your van is on a flat surface and the parking brake is engaged. Then, remove the wheel cover and loosen the lug nuts.
Next, carefully remove the caliper bolts and lift out the old brake pads. Be careful not to damage the caliper or brake line.
Before installing the new brake pads, use a brake cleaner to remove any dirt or debris. Then, apply a thin layer of grease to the back of the new pads.
Now, place the new pads into the caliper and reattach the bolts. Make sure they are tightened securely.
