3:18 you do not ,,have to have" this tool - if you have a angle grinder at home, you probably also have a key/wrench for it (to change discs). It fits almost perfectly with those slots - I had to take 0,5mm from the key ,,knobs" for it to fit right in. Then, I just started to turn it right/screw it in, and it went back like showed in this video. If you have this tool - I AM SURE it is easier to use etc. - but if you have not, think twice if you really have to get a tool you're gonna use once in few years. Just wanted to share this with you, because I know folks who when they see a tool they do not have, they immediately go to a shop/garage/mechanic and pay triple the amount. Why do that? Cheers, great video :)

@@us3804i dont think it's a good idea...you slip and easy cut the rubber dust cap with the sharp tips...(and possibly can hurt yourself too)...

@arturro great tip many thanks!!!👍 (I used an old bicycle tool-the flat one with multiple openings- drilled and fixed two 5mm screws with same distance as the slots on the piston) Cheers again and you take care! A

Good vidéo. You should paint everything with a metallic spray. Your Astra is super rusty downstairs. Good Idea for the Grease. My Astra j has 195 000 kms. Not to much problem, instead dpr end egr valve to clean. I have my own receipt to clean everything. White spirit, acéton, trichloréthylène and vaseline oil in the tank (30 cl) sometimes.. Good saturday🇫🇷😊

Hello, handbrake is propably not attracted to get the caliper off. What is the correct position for the jack stand? The jack is in the rear position of the sill. Greatings from Germany

I can’t get the calliper on the pads are on correct but seem a bit thick would it be ok to sand them down

Why sanding down?

Every one say the piston has to be align But Nobody say WHY ¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿¿

@danallsopp7441 7 ай бұрын

Or else the caliper won't slide back over the pads due to there being a little indent on the piston that allows it to slot over the pads

Repent to Jesus Christ! Are you a sinner? Luke 5:32 King James Version 32 I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance. Luke 13:3 King James Version 3 I tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
