Removal
1. Remove the rear wheel assembly.
2. Move the parking brake lever in the direction of the arrow and disconnect the parking brake cable from it, as shown in the figure below.
3. Squeeze the parking brake cable clamps and remove the cable from the mounting bracket as shown in the figure below.
4. Remove the locking screws from the disc brake caliper support; hold the guide pins while doing this.
5. Remove the disc brake caliper and secure it with wire so that its weight does not exert any load on the brake hose.
6. Remove the friction linings and retaining springs (arrows).
7. Clean the disc brake caliper; it is prohibited to have any adhesive or grease residue on the surface onto which the friction linings will be glued.
Note. To clean the caliper of the disc wheel brake mechanism, use only alcohol.
Installation
Note: Before pressing in, remove the brake fluid from the expansion tank using a bleeder.
1. Press the piston into the disc brake caliper by turning the knurled flywheel of the reverse adjustment device (T10165). Do not damage the cuff. If it is difficult to move the piston, you can use an open-end wrench on the areas (A) provided for this purpose.
Note: Pressing the piston in with the reverse adjustment tool will cancel the automatic piston adjustment in the disc brake caliper.
2. Install new friction linings and spring clips (arrows) into the caliper support.
3. Remove the protective film from the rear surface of the friction lining.
4. Secure the disc brake caliper with new self-locking screws. Hold the guide pins while tightening.
Note: The spare part kit also includes four self-locking screws that must be used.
5. Insert and secure the parking brake cable bushing (arrows) into the mounting bracket as shown in the figure below. Insert the bushing until the locks click into place.
6. Move the parking brake lever in the direction of the arrow and connect the parking brake cable to it as shown in the figure below.
7. Press the brake pedal several times while the car is parked.
8. Adjust the parking brake lever.
9. Install the wheels.
Note: After replacing the friction linings, the brake fluid level should be checked and adjusted if necessary.
