Description
Holden Brake Pad Replacement Guide — Featuring TRW
> Your Holden's brake pads are dead important; they're the bit that creates the friction to slow you down. They wear down over time, especially if you're tackling that daily commute or giving it heaps on the open road. If they're cactus, get them sorted pronto!
Spotting the Signs of Worn Pads
• Squealing like a pig or grinding noises when you hit the brakes
• Brakes feeling a bit soft, or taking longer to stop
• A judder through the brake pedal
• Visibly thin pads (or worse, gone completely!)
• That pesky brake pad warning light
Will it pass WOF?
Worn brake pads are a surefire WOF failure. They gotta be thick enough to do the job safely.
DIY or Workshop?
Difficulty: 6/10
Estimated Time: 2-3 hours
Tools Required: Jack and stands, wrench set, socket set, brake cleaner, C-clamp or brake spreader, torque wrench
🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
• Safety First, Mates! Never, ever get under a car supported only by a jack. Use proper axle stands – your life depends on it!
• Brake Cleaner: Blast away that nasty brake dust with a can of Brake Cleaner. It'll help you see what you're doing and keep things clean.
• Caliper Grease: A wee dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the right spots keeps everything moving smoothly and prevents annoying squeals.
• Gloves: Keep your hands clean (and protected from sharp edges) with a set of Nitrile Gloves.
• Eye Protection: Brake dust and debris can be a real pain in the eye. Safety glasses are cheap as chips and worth their weight in gold.
Expert Recommendation
Replacing your Holden's brake pads is crucial for safety. Don't muck around with worn pads – they'll let you down when you need them most. TRW are top-notch, but we've got a stack of options at CARFIX. Pop into Bob's Shop for a yarn, and I'll sort you out with the right pads for your Holden!
Fitment Notes
Double-check these pads fit your exact Holden Berlina or Commodore model and year. Some models have different brake setups.

🧰 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.
