How to Replace the Brake Pads on a Magotan?
1 Answers
Volkswagen Magotan Brake Pad Replacement Steps: 1. Before replacing the brake pads, open the cap of the brake fluid reservoir in the engine compartment to check the brake fluid level. If the brake fluid level is above the maximum limit, some fluid should be siphoned out to prevent overflow during the replacement process. 2. Prepare the new brake pads for replacement and remove the wheel where the brake is located. Be careful to avoid scratching the rim during the removal process. 3. Use a wrench and socket to remove the bolts of the brake caliper, then take out the brake pads (if there is a brake sensor wire, remove it first). Check if the brake pads are excessively worn or have cracks, and proceed with the replacement if necessary. 4. Since the brake caliper may have a lot of sand or dirt, clean it thoroughly with a cloth and apply anti-squeal paste to prevent noise during braking. 5. Use a piston press to push the piston to its limit, then install the new brake pads onto the caliper. After installing the new brake pads (and reconnecting the brake sensor wire if applicable), tighten the guide bolts to complete the installation. 6. After installation, securely close the reservoir cap, get into the car, and press the brake pedal several times to reset the brake. Then check the brake fluid level to ensure it is within the appropriate range. 7. After replacement, test drive the car to verify the braking performance.
