Had troubles with that brake caliper spring. Thanks to this video, got it finally working! Much love from finland!!!
Thank you for watching! We are glad to be helpful!
Thank you Autodoc.
Now l can save lot of money.
Thanks to your video, I made the change of the breaks on my car, and yes you need to loosen the pistons to make it easier to take off the old pads and put on the new ones, because you will have a bit of a hard time.
Thank you for the feedback! We hope that our tutorial was helpful for you. Stay tuned and follow our latest updates. Best regards, Autodoc.
lordzolen How do you loosen the pistons?
maybe it helps to turn on the engine, use the breaks, push 2-3 times the pedals, then turn off the engine, but not take out the key, and if its not loosen it enough, just use a tough screwdriver to make space between the pads and the brake disc, so you push the piston in, till you can take off the pads
Did this job on my Astra G and damaged the threads on the hub for the upper slider pins for the caliper on both sides of the car. My Astra had the integrated hub holder type.The brake caliper is bolted directly to the hub. Be very carefull putting in the caliper slider bolts as the threads are very fine and easily damaged. Make sure to grease up the threads on the caliper slider bolts first and then put in by hand.If you have any doubts about cross threading the bolts just stop.Iv had to get two new hubs for my astra.
Thank you for the feedback! If any difficulties appear We strongly recommend you to visit a specialized car service center. Best regards, Autodoc.
Use steel or copper brush for cleaning surface hub before placing disc.
You could use some ceramic antiseize on the surface of the hub before placing the disc.
Alway clean the surface of the disc with a brake cleaner and a new cloth before installing caliper and new brakepads.
please note the haynes manual recomends when pushing back the piston to put a hose clamp on the brake hose leading to the caliper and hydraulic fluid is drained through the bleed nipple. This is because there have been instances of damage being caused to the master cylinder seals when pushing back the piston. should have been shown in video as important step. how can you miss steps in instructional video on important task such as brakes??
Thank you for your feedback! You are absolutely right, no way is this video a tutorial, but it is just informative. We always recommend that the works, especially on the brake system, should be done on the Specialized Car Service. Best wishes, Autodoc.
This is a stupid ass reply. As the poster said it right, the bleeder valve has to be opened on the caliper before pushing back the piston. This is not some minor detail.
Remove guide pins clean them and lubricate with silicone grease where is this part?
This video is for informational purposes only and does not guarantee any specific results.
I've read that you can swap to two piston caliper and larger rotors on the Astra G from Corsa VXR.
Alterations in the brake system are not desirable, and it is better not to do this.

Great video! Earned a subscription here, but do the brake pads come out that easily or does the piston have to be pushed back...?
Thank you for the feedback! Yes, the piston has to be pushed back in most cases. Best regards, Autodoc.
Two important mistakes. The retaining bolts must be talked to the correct tenchion. 2 all Rotor disk must be cleaned to remove the protective oil coating.
You are absolutely right. Yes, in practice it is absolutely necessary to use a torque wrench and observe the appropriate tightening torques.
Same my OPEL Astra car
so i just use a g clamp to push the piston back.p.s thanx for the up.do i have to crack a line in the process

Good video. Could you tell me why my calipers on my astra van seem to have lots of play? Do the fixing bolts bend after a lot of use as I recently changed front wheel for spare but caliper rubbed on some protruding weld on inner wheel! The wheel is a genuine van wheel.. just seems the calipers are very close to the wheels. Thanks
Thank you for the feedback! If you have any difficulties, we recommend that you go to the Service station , where specialists with professional equipment will solve this problem much easier.Best regards, Autodoc.
There is made one mistake: You have to remove rust before mounting new brake disc!
Thank you for the feedback! This video is considered to be an informative one, and it shows the sequence of repairs, so some stages of the repairs might have been excluded. Best regards, Autodoc.
I have replaced the front discs and pads and calipers and flexipipe on my Astra G.
But the brakes are binding on the O.S.Front wheel.
I had this problem before I replaced all of the above and it's still doing it.
What do u suggest is the problem?????
Help please 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
Thank you for your comment! We highly recommend that you contact our Customer Support agents with every question you have and you will get an advice on which car pats you need to obtain or any other assistance you require. We look forward to hearing from you! Best regards, Autodoc!
I have the same problem. One guy says it could be the hoses (if bleeding unbinds). I myself think it's maybe a caliper design fault as mine (originals) are not at 90 degree angle to the disc. Had this problem for years, and still no final conclusion. Buy original ruber parts, the cheaper brands use ruber seals that doesn't last much more than a year, and then you have to do the job over again.
No copper grease or pad goo on the pads or calipers?
Thank you for your commrnt!
You are right, you should definitely use lubricants when assembling the brake mechanism, we have already added this information in the new videos.

Autodoc team

Looks easy but I would probably struggle, best just go the garage instead as they need to earn a crust right Post bloody Covid-19 right? Got to keep the Gleaming Globally economy rolling along haven't we all?
Thank you for sharing your opinion!
Not so great to know that a shitty torx 30 screw is the only thing which holds the brake disk on its place :)) :((
along with the calipers mounted,then a tyre put in front of it bolted in place with 4 bolts. they aint going anywhere...but yeah maybe a few more screws to even it out?
its only there to hold the disc whilst the wheel is off.
These are in place purely for the assembly process at the factory. It is the wheel that keeps the discs in place.
and u didn't even, show that after you have changed the pads, you should press ur brake pedal a couple of times.....
Thank you for the feedback! This video tutorial is considered to be an informative one, and it shows the principle of replacing the brake pads, without going into all the technical details. Best regards, Autodoc.
Trace Jay that's right well done
What the fuck does number 7 end bit mean 😂 I’m guessing a 7mm hex key?
Yes, that's right, the hex key is like 7mm.
