Ooops, mis-typed the year of the car, sorry...


Hello,

I would like to change the rear disc brakes and also, if necessary change the emergency brake shoes - or at least adjust the cable. The disc pads are almost to the point where the sensor is going to be activated. As for the emergency brake - I have to pull it at least 8/10 notches before there is any effect.

I would be grateful for any tips and howtos on this job, also any do nots.

I recently did the front rotor and discs, so I Ihave some idea of what to expect. One of the questions is how do I know if I need to change the rear rotors - apart from measurement.

Thanks,

Hanif.
