Tip take the reservoir cap off the piston will push back easy as the cap is still holding the pressure in

[@aaanton11]

Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠

[@AW-Services]

Best safer tip. Chuck the wheel under the sill, as you're not using any axle stands if the van falls it's recoverable with the jack and saves crush injuries

It may be worth mentioning the sizes of the tools needed. 13mm Spanner, 17mm Socket, 40 Torx and quite unusually an 18mm @ 3:00 Not sure if yours was 18mm, but mine was and what do you get in wrench kits....17mm and 19mm! Great video, gave me confidence at tackling mine.

[@matthewhelliwell6485]

Hi,
I want thank you kindly for this video. Probably the best video on youtube. I have never done anything like this before and I watched this and changed my rear brake pads myself. Delighted!! So thank you.
I took the 2 bolts out that hold the piston part of the caliper but mine was really stiff to come off? I had to tap it gently with a hammer. I used the piston winding too to screw it back and even when fully pushed back it was tight going over the new pads and again needed a gentle tap with a hammer. Any tips?
Many thanks again for taking the time to film this for people. Much appreciated

[@aaanton11]

Just be sure the sliding pins are free and not binding, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Great video. Had mine done earlier today and paid £140. When he was done and lowered the van back down he wanted the keys to do something to the abs in the cab of the van????

[@aaanton11]

Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠

[@liamgbooth]

It seems as though that yellow indicator could be to show maximum position for the slider. If the rubber boot is showing past it then change the pads. Only thing I can think of.

[@aaanton11]

Thanks for the great information👍🏻👍🏻🛠

[@jsouto77]

You know you're going to get a good ribbing for using those bits on the impact driver. Not from me though as im often guilty of the same lol. Thanks for the videos and contributions :)

Hi any advice on the 2 torque bolts for the disc. Mines are really tight on driver side

[@aaanton11]

give it a good tap with the hammer first, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

The early mrk2 model also has that yellow thing on the brakes as well 🤔

[@garydeandeery]

What about the back ones I’m told it’s different like drum Iv got all the pads and new disks to fit tomorrow the front be no problem but now not sure about the back. Do I need the piston screw in still ?? And looks like the drum sticks out more. Is it just normal change

[@aaanton11]

If its the same as the older model the rear discs have a interdrated bearing with a large retaining nut in the middle, you will need a piston rewind tool. Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

Yes mate many thanks for your help

No the rears are more difficult, the discs are expensive they include a bearing set, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

What about just changing the pads would it be a similar procedure but without removing the discs?

[@aaanton11]

@@Pompey701 You will need a calliper wind back tool like this amzn.to/2yAOPss to retract the rear callipers but its easy to do when you have one, I use one in this video ruclips.net/video/OkeXYEdagaM/видео.html it is very similar on the vivaro, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

My mate has one of these vans for work. It's only covered 44,000 miles and he has already had to have 2 injectors replaced. This doesn't seem right,, I was lead to believe that they should last the life of the van

sounds like a Friday car, There seems to be a lot of injector issues across all manufacturers at the moment, Thanks for the great comments👍🏻👍🏻🛠

[@adamprice9214]

@@aaanton11 @aaanton11 it's a mk 3 on a 20 plate, bout time the manufacturers got there arses kicked vauxhall in particular, there was a watchdog series about the mk 2 and Renault and Nissan admitted a design flaw whereas vauxhall wouldn't 😂🤷‍♂️ however all three back at the time would cover the costs on an extended warranty.. should be the same with this rummage.. to me anything built after around 2000 no matter the make/model will let you down. More gearboxes engines fuel pumps dpf"s turbos injectors and christ knows what go wrong on this modern stuff well before there timenand doesn't seem to matter what make or model. Surly we evolve not take a step back in time 🤷‍♂️🤦‍♂️ nothings built to last anymore and costs a dam fortune in parts and labour
