Removal and installation of a bracket and a support of back brakes

Withdrawal

Remove the rear brake pads.



Remove the protective cap -5- from the guide pin.

Disconnect the brake hose from the caliper. Close the holes with plugs to prevent excessive loss of brake fluid and the ingress of contaminants, see point 15.3.



Unscrew and remove the guide pin. The picture shows a Turnier car. On the Limousine, the guide pin is on top of the brake caliper.

Remove the brake caliper from the brake caliper.



Disconnect the cable -3- from the parking brake lever -4-.


Remove the two mounting bolts and remove the brake caliper.

Installation

Fasten the caliper with a torque of 60 Nm.

Install the brake caliper, tighten the guide pin with a torque of 40 Nm. Put on the protective cap.

Connect the parking brake cable see 15.16.

Attach the brake hose to the bracket.

Install the brake pads.

Bleed the air from the brake system, see clause 15.12.

Attention, carry out security checks:

• Is the brake hose fastener tight?
• Is the brake hose fixed in the holder?
• Are the bleed valves tight?
• Is the level of brake fluid in the expansion tank sufficient?

Carry out a leak test with the engine running. To do this, press the brake pedal with a force of 200-300 N (20-30 kg) and hold it for about 10 seconds. The pedal must not fall. Check the tightness of all connections.

Finally, take a few stops on a street with little traffic.
