No problemo mate!

I'm changing my front pads this weekend aswell.

Tried to do them the other day but didn't have a single 7mm allen key or socket amongst my mountain of tools. God knows why they went 7mm, so odd!

Have fun disconnecting the wear sensor wiring aswell! Those connectors are a bugger to pull apart, and usually get broken by angry mechanics!

Other than that the fronts are easy.....

i must say bodge, i thought it looked tricky myself when i had a quick look, is there any easy way it comes off. im a chuffer for breaking things. oh ill make sure ive got a 7mm key to lol. ta matey.

to save you typing praise the turbo gods every post (whatever that means)... you could always put it in your signature?

You can add your signature into the control panel options, save you typing it out.

thanks for the advise pmsl

Done mine now.

Predictably broke the electrical connector on the old nearside pad wear sensor!

Off to bed them in.....
