How to replace your Fiat 500 front discs and pads

If you have ever wondered how to change the front discs and pads on your Fiat 500 then just hit the play button.
If you own a new shape Ford KA the same principle applies!
Anyway....
It's really quite simple all you have to do it remove the disc securing/retaining screws (10mm spanner/ socket )
Then using a hammer (and a punch ideally) tap the caliper pin throw.
Flip the caliper up and remove pads
Using a 17mm spanner remove the carrier to hub bolts and remove the caliper and carrier as one
Remove the disc (with force if needed)
Clean the hub service, push the piston back in with a g clamp
Reassemble with greased pads.
So my battery died so I haven't got footage of the reassembling stage. But It's very similar to other cars so just check out one of my other brake videos for tips

Would help if you put the year of your 500.

Actually you didn’t do a replacement you just did a removal. The hard bit is re assembly not dismantling !

Female Torx socket required on mine. Pain in the arse when a bolt would do the job

Hi, mines a Fiat Panda MK3 and has the same male torx socket bolt, do you know what size of female torx socket I need to remove the caliper carrier?
