Dacia Renault Sandero Logan Duster brake pads replace DIY how to Wannabe Mechanic

Hello wannabe mechanics!
In this tutorial we are going to show you another simple DIY mechanical job. That is replacing the brake pads on a 2017 DACIA or RENAULT Sandero . Even if most car owners are afraid to perform mechanical jobs on their breaking system I can assure you that replacing the brake pads is a great mechanical job for a beginner. Apart from saving up some money and time , doing this kind of operation can give you great satisfaction and a better understanding of how breaking systems work. Also, for this opperation you do not need an elevator or a garage pit. So if you don’t mind getting your hands a bit dirty , grab your tools and let’s get to work.
Note: At 7:30 the values are in fact in Nm so no need to transform in FTlb
I am using the Go Pro Hero 7 for my videos. In my opinion it is the best due to mechanical gimbal‑like stabilization-without the gimbal. Also you can use any power bank you want when filming, no over heating. Affiliate link here for best deal:

Thanks for making this video. The exploded diagram at 7:30 is from the Renault Dialogys software..The values are in Nm NOT ft.lb so no need to convert as per the suggestion in the video..

I did check , you are right Mark. Thank you for being attentive ,i will add a message at that exact minute.

We changed our brake pads with just your instructions .very good video and simple . However you do not mention to bleed the brakes after completion ,which would be a very good thing to add to your video . Our brakes were spongy when finished .. but my husband knew to bleed them, where some people would not know this . Excellent video though .

Normally, if you just change the brake pads it is not mandatory to bleed the brakes. All you have to do after the job is press the brake pedal 4-5 times untill the pedal becomes stiff. You are supposed to bleed the system if you change the calipers, brake lines or other components that involve loss of pressure. If you are loosing pressure you should get that checked.

Thanks for this. I think the hardest part is getting that spring back in lol. Do you have a video about replacing the disks?

[@TheDIYWorkshop2020]

Not yet!

Hi Many thanks for the video. Could you please tell where did you get that diagram, did you use any software or repair manual? Many thanks

Dear Mr M. I found the diagram on a specialised Sandero Forum. When we talk about lug nuts, rotor bolt or caliper bolts it is usually enough to hand tighten them. Some people use a torque wrench but find that the value recommended by the manufacturer is too low, so they end up handtightening them anyway (often overtightening). Software and manuals are very important when we talk about values needed for fine tuning ( like tightening the head gasket). Tightening the small bolt holding the rotor to more than 5 Nm is higly improbable. Hope you get the analogy. Unfortunately Autodata is too expensive for a freelancer so I use data from many other sources.Thank you for watching, we have many other interesting videos coming up.
