Changing Front Brake Pads
This is a guide to changing the brake pads. This was on a Mk2 Scala – with help from Ant it did have vented disks, back to solid now, as vented wore out!
I just acquired some Mitex pads, that have barely been used, so I decided to change, as the others only had about 4mm left.
Tools needed:
6mm Allen Key
11mm Spanner
Wheel nut wrench
Jack
1. Loosen the wheel bolts, apply the handbrake and jack up the car.

2. Remove the wheel
