I’m a non petrol head, couldn’t point out the turbo on my car to be honest. But watching these videos with Ethan doing stuff gave me the confidence to change over my rear bumper after my parking sensors failed and I reversed into something, not sure I have the confidence to change anything mechanically yet, at least not on my 2016 f21. But I’ll give changing the brake pads a go just not the discs. Baby steps lol

John Peterson honestly if you are doing your pads and you also need to do the rotors, pads are like 80% of the job, the rotors are the easy part of the job, just undo 2 screws, clean the new ones and fit them. As easy as that. I find more labor on the pads than in the rotors.

I hate working on my bike cus it's got so much screws and shit in weird spots. Like the screw for my kickstand that keeps getting loosened up is in a really tight place that I struggle to get the Allen wrench into. Spent like 10 minutes tightening it when it should be a 30 second fix if it wasn't in such a bad position.

Changing brake pads and discs is actually one of the easiest jobs on a car. Easy access and only a 8 bolts. It’s hard to get wrong. I’d double check the owners manual for the correct jacking location under the car, so you don’t damage the floor pan. The oily residue on the new brake discs are to stop them corroding while on the shelf. I would also give the mounting brackets a clean as well, so the slots that the pads slide in are free of brake dust. I used a thick screwdriver laid horizontally across the brake piston to push it in, or I suppose you could use the breaker bar laid across. I find it helps if you unscrew the brake reservoir cap.
