Photo DIY- Rear Brake Pad Change

Well, this started as a brake pad change post.

My 140.043 has no rear brake pad wear sensors, and since I have almost 120,000 miles/10 years on the ORIGINAL PADS, I thought, "Ah, what the heck, let me just change them".

As you can see from the post, the rear pads and rotors are NEARLY NEW!!

Anyhow, the procedure is the same. Just substitute "New Pads" for "Replace Pads".

For reference, my Front Pads lasted almost 100,000 miles before hitting the wear sensor.

Since most cars are a 80/20 split between front/rear braking, this might explain the lack of rear wear.
