Mégane 2016 rear pad replacement

Unread post by ODBODD »

I need rear pads for my Renault Mégane 2016.. It has an electric handbrake. Can I fit rear pads without needing diagnostic stuff to disengage the parking brake. Help appreciated.

Yes you can, when you switch car off normally parking brake activate by itself, just press brake pedal and manually re-lease parking brake, take card out and make sure no one put ignition on. Open brake fluid cap, replace the pads (need a tool to wind pistons back), then press brake pedal a few times slowly until goes hard, start the car, manually apply and release parking brake, job done...
