Right this might sound stupid but how do I remove the pads from the caliper. I have got the caliper in my hand and looking at the rear. Please carry on.

 

you don't mention age/model of vehicle??

2pot or 4pot caliper??

4pot - has spring clip across the back of 2pins............take off, remove the pins from the top of the pads and they will withdraw easily................

2pot - undo the 12/14mm bolt at one end of the caliper on the back and pivot the top around to expose the pads..................

p.s you don't need to take either caliper off the car!!

 

stockcar sorry mate its a MY99 4 pot. I took the caliper off and greased the bolts ready for swapping the discs, they are cream crakered. I will be swapping discs and pads in the very near future. Just unsure how the pads came out, and to make life easy I asked. Thank you Sir for replying.
