Just come across your channel via an insignia face book page in a member of, I like the videos you've done , done the egr and throttle body before but not the brakes, mine is the 2015 sports tourer , do you know if this brake change is the same ? I've done timing and drive belts, water pump , lowered suspension and so on, so I'm OK with the spanners lol just wondering if my brakes would be the same process, cheers
Firstly, thank you for liking the video and taking the time to comment and welcome if your a new subscriber. Seems like your a handy person so if your going to attempt the break change then good luck. I found it pretty straightforward I was documenting my first time. If you have break sensors on then it looks like you just pull the wire off the pads and replace. Typically when I remove sensors I disconnect the negative battery, before unplugging sensors. I then clean the ports using contact cleaner like the wd40 electrical sprey. amzn.to/3yLEw4m For reference my car tyres are 17" and I needed the 16" disc/pads. They are sold in pairs everything with the exception of front disc. I'd recommend going to a store like Gsf or eurocar parts. I've brought stuff on ebay previously and it's been totally wrong like start motors or badges.
