106 Changing Front Brakes

Link_pad · 01-28-2011, 07:27 PM

Hi,

Trying to replace Discs and pads myself. I have pin punched the ATE pad retaining pins (was much fun

), But when i come to put in the new pads as they are slightly larger they just won't fit in the brake pad compartment itself !! I dunno what to do looks like theres some big piston pushing the pads back is there anyway of loosening that for extra space ??

Thanks Pat

Forgive me for suggesting this, but if your knowledge really is that lacking then the last thing you should be doing is working on a critical safety system.
