    Thanks for video, i will change it next month. However i sugest check caliper dust boot and poston. Other thing is - open air release (bleader screw) when push back piston, breake fluid inside caliper is preaty dirty.
    There is a little metal fragment on this jack stand - there is "C" shape hole with metal piece inside - hamer it to prevent come out inner column.

    Hello friend, and what about plastilube for the pins? Is good? Thanks.

      If you're referring to the ATE Plastilube, I haven't used it myself. But according to the specifications, it is suitable for use on the caliper slide pins and the backside of brake pads (to avoid squeaking).

      ​@@nunogoncalves24 Yes, it is safe to use with brake-related rubber and caliper slide pins, as per this spec sheet: www.partinfo.co.uk/files/XZS120GB.pdf​. I've been using it for the last 4 years on all my cars with no issues.

    Hello friend, i have a probleme with the abs pump module, do you know the OEM of the module? We have the same motor A14xer. Thank you.

      Hi! Based on the VIN number of our own Corsa, the ABS module's OE number is Opel 530016 / GM 95507578. But it's best to go to a dealer with your own Corsa's VIN number and ask them for the part number.

    When are you doing the timing chain?

    • @TheMissingBolt

      I'll tackle the timing chain when it starts showing signs of wear. So far it's making no noise and working fine. But if that moment comes, I'll surely make a video on it.

    What brand brake disk are you using

    • @TheMissingBolt

      I've used ATE for both the rotors and the pads.

    Whats the adhesive for on the two pads?

    • @TheMissingBolt
      @TheMissingBolt  Год назад +1

      To be honest, I don't know exactly. The Range Rover and Kia pads have no exposed adhesive, for example. I'm guessing it helps the pad grip better against the caliper, so that when you release the brake the caliper will "pull" the pad away from the brake rotor so that the pad doesn't end up sticking.
