Replacing brake pads in a car is not only a matter of safety but also of saving money. Performing this task yourself can save you time and money. In this step-by-step guide, we will discuss how to properly replace brake pads at home, ensuring safe driving for yourself and others.

Preparation of Tools and Materials

Before starting to replace the brake pads, make sure you have all the necessary tools and materials. You will need:

  • Jack or wheel chocks
  • Lug wrench
  • Socket wrench
  • Brake caliper tool set
  • Brake cleaning kit
  • New brake pads (suitable for your car model)
  • Brake fluid

Step 1: Lifting the Vehicle

Start by safely lifting the vehicle using a jack or using wheel chocks to block the wheels.

Step 2: Removing the Wheel

Using a lug wrench, loosen the lug nuts securing the wheel, and then remove the wheel.

Step 3: Removing the Brake Caliper

Use a socket wrench to loosen the bolts securing the brake caliper. Carefully remove the caliper and hang it on a spring or brake line to avoid putting stress on the hose.

Step 4: Removing the Old Pads

Gently remove the old brake pads from the brake disc. If they are stuck, you can use a screwdriver to gently pry them out.

Step 5: Cleaning the Brake Disc

Before installing the new pads, thoroughly clean the brake disc using the brake cleaning kit. Remove dirt and debris to ensure better performance of the new pads.

Step 6: Installing the New Pads

Place the new brake pads into the caliper according to the manufacturer’s recommendations. Make sure the pads are properly seated and snug against the brake disc.

Step 7: Mounting the Brake Caliper

Reinstall the brake caliper back into place and tighten the mounting bolts. Ensure all connections are securely fastened.

Step 8: Repeat for the Second Wheel

Repeat all the steps for the second wheel, ensuring careful work and precise placement of the new brake pads.

Step 9: Checking the Brake Fluid Level

After completing the brake pad replacement, check the brake fluid level and top it up if necessary.

Conclusion

Replacing brake pads at home can be achievable even for individuals without specialized knowledge. By following the above steps and exercising caution, you can perform this replacement yourself, saving time and money, and most importantly, ensuring the safety of yourself and other road users.
