Brake Pad Changing

Hi,

My rear brake pads are due a change (05 1.4 Octy), decided to pick up pads myself and get a buddy of mine (who knows his stuff) to change them for me. Better than paying €130 to a dealer.

Could anyone tell me what size tool do we need to remove the caliper. I wasn't working on the car myself but he has sets of allen and hex keys and couldn't get the two bolts off. If anyone could point us in the right direction it would be a great help.

Thanks for your help

Brian

Re: Brake Pad Changing

For the rears you also need a calliper windback tool. I don't remember the tool sizes, the place I go to has a big set of just about anything you could imagine to pick from.
