Description

Ford Focus & Fiesta Brake Pad Replacement — TRW Edition
> Your Ford's brake pads are what rub against the rotors to slow you down. They wear out over time, especially if you're hammering around in a Focus ST or Fiesta ST, or racking up the k's in a Focus TDDi. Time for a change?

Spotting the Warning Signs
• Brakes squealing like a gutted pig?
• Taking longer to pull up at the lights?
• Brake pedal feeling soft as?
• Pads looking worse for wear?
• Dashboard warning light glaring at you?

WOF Woes?
Worn brake pads are a dead cert for failing your WOF here in NZ. They need to be thick enough to pull you up safely.

DIY or Get a Pro?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours
Tools Required: Jack and stands (never get under a car supported only by a jack!), wrench set, socket set, brake cleaner, brake pad spreader, torque wrench.

🛠️ Bob's Pro Tip: Do the Job Right!
> If you're swapping out these parts on your vehicle, don't skimp on fresh rotors. Check out our compatible TRW Disc Brake Rotors (Part No. DF4036S) to ensure a perfect bed-in and get the job done properly first time!

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Brakes get incredibly dirty. Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from stubborn brake dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use a high-quality Brake Cleaner spray to blast away stubborn dust, oil, and road grime from the caliper assembly and new rotors before reassembly.
• Lubrication: Apply a thin smear of high-temperature caliper grease to the pad backing plates and slide pins (keep it off the pad friction material!) to prevent squeals and ensure smooth caliper operation.
