Hi All. Sorry if this has been covered 1000 times but I have spend 45 minutes searching & got no awnsers...
My partner has a 2007 plate Panda 100hp. I have noticed at 40.000 miles the rear brake pads look pretty worn down, does anyone have any details about changing these, do I need anything special as I don't want to mess the handbrake unit up. I have done many brakes before but not with rear discs. I was thinking of using EBC basic road pads - less dust & brake in coating.
Also the fronts were done before we bought the car, a year or so ago but I think cheap pads were fitted as they churn brake dust out - my partner is'nt a fast driver so I think it's down to cheap quality.
Are these easy enough to change at the same time? Again looking at EBC pads.
On a final question it has done 40.000 now, ready for a major service I think. What do you guys have done at this kind of mileage. I was thinking along the lines of cam belt, air con regas, oil/oil filter, fuel filter, air filter, plugs & cabin filter. What else is there to do????
Many Thanks, Dave.
