My little sister can fit disks and pads, there are guides in the guide section to help you

Are you getting new braided hoses aswell?

Pads and discs are simple to fit, hoses are little more involved.

I'd say do it.

Other than my balljoint issues i've jost done mine (Fronts).

No issue at all.

The only thing to note is it takes more force than you'd imagine to push the piston back into the caliper (for fitting the new pads), and make sure you've got an old rag wrapped tightly around the brake fluid reservoir (have to remove engine cover for access) to stop spilliage when it bleeds. Dispose of the rag correctly as soon as you've finished.

Rears seem like they are a bit more tricky, there is drifting and pressing involved.

I wasnt going to chnage the hoses lee as they were new one fitted last year granted there just standard ones. I havent got any axle stands or trolly jack just the jack thats in the car from renualt.

Get your little sis round here to do it for me will you please.
