Hi does anyone know of any web sites that can tell you how to replace the front brake pads easily?

Hello Pommie
Have you ever done any work like this before? The job itself is pretty straight forward for me but I am a mechanic. Get it wrong and you will find yourself with no brakes and that is not much fun. For the money it would cost you to get it done by a professional you can rest easy at night knowing your brakes will work when you need them the most!!

Don't take this the wrong way but I personly believe brakes are one area that should be left to the experts.


Cheers Ben

I have replaced mine before but not on an ABS car? Is the procedure any different? They loose me when they start talking about "bleeding the brakes"?
