THIS IS STEP BY STEP HOW TO CHANGE THE REAR BRAKE PAD FOR MERCEDES-BENZ W203 C180 KOMPRESSOR FACELIFT MODEL. IT IS VERY EASY JOB. IT IS BASED ON MY EXPERIENCE.
FIRST YOU NEED TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU HAVE ALL THE TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT REQUIRED.
1)flat screw driver (Fig 3)
2)hammer and nail (Fig 3)
3)new rear brake pad (fig 1).
4)brake cleaner
5)clamp
6)2 ton jack (Fig 2)
7)brush
8)anti-seize
THEN, PLEASE FOLLOW THESE STEPS;
1) remove/install wheel, rotate if necessary (Fig 3)
2) using nail and hammer, hammer out the retaining pin and remove retaining spring (Fig 4, Fig 5)
3)using flat screw driver, pull/push the brake pad outward to release the brake piston pressure (fig 6).
3) pull brake pads out of brake caliper.
4) check brake thickness and brake disk and inspect the condition, replace if necessary,
5) clean the contact surface of brake caliper using brush
6) and install new brake pad in reverse order.
