Rear Brake Pads

[TheDon]

Well i would like to thank matt for the great rear brake how too.

It saved me £147 minus the £28 for the pads.

Lexus wanted to charge £147 to change them, and i had just read the how too i refused to pay them.

I had both sides done in 30mins, and i cant wait to change my fronts now i feel a little bit more confident.

Thanks again matt

If it was only pads why did it take that long

[TheDon]

Sorry "mat" lol.

I cant get my car down the drive anymore so i had to work in the road (and it was bloody freezing!) and had to turn the car round after i did one side so i could work without getting run over!.

The little pin was a bit stuck on one side and took a few mins to free. But i cant wait to fit my pads on the front now.

[TheDon]
