It's brake pad time. I plan to raise the car, lock it (until it's all finished), take the wheels off and leave it for 15 minutes before dismantling the calipers to clean things up, change the pads and put it all back together.
Q: what have I missed out before disaster strikes.
Phase 2: I was planning to change the rear pads too but have been warned by an ex MB trained technician that the rear calipers are prone to lock up a few miles after a pad change?????????? I'm not too sure about doing the rears now.
