Rear Brakes

[muffs]

How easy is to change pads at the back of a 182??

Is it mega hassle or would a competent tinkerer manage??

Took me long enough to find the resevoir so any other surprise i should be ready for before i start removing wheels??

Renault wanted £92 for the job and im far to tight for that so doing it myself hopefully!!

Any comments much appreciated

dunno about 182 sorry... but done it on my 172cup in a matter of minutes. Seriously easy

You reckon there pretty similar??

piss easy pal.,, just like doin the fronts.....

i doubt theres much difference to be honest. If you can manage to jack the car up & remove the wheel without breaking something... you should be competent enough to change pads.

Just remember to buy the right ones... i had big problems trying to get ones that match (ended up buying reno ones to be on the safe side)

Got them from a motor factor today £16 bargain...

Ferodo Specials should be ok!!
