Removing and installing/replacing left or right
front brake caliper
Important!
The brake pad wear sensor must be replaced once it has
been removed (brake pad wear sensor loses its retention
capability in the brake pad).
Necessary preliminary tasks:
•
Remove wheel
•
Remove brake pad wear sensor
•
Read and comply with General Information.
After completing work: Bleed braking system
Press clutch pedal down to floor and secure with pedal support.
Note:
The pedal support may only be released when the brake lines are
reconnected.
This prevents brake fluid from emerging from the expansion tank
and air from entering the system when the brake lines are opened.
Detach retainer (1) from bracket on spring strut in upward
direction.
Installation:
Retainer (1) must be felt and heard to snap into place.
Ensure correct seating in guide.
