Ok i replaced my brake pads today. What a nightmare, i only got one wheel.. I broke the bolt on the caliber. The one on the bottom to release it and lift it up to get to the pads. Dont know what im gonna do about that. Also i was trieing to remove the caliber to put on new rotors, and i cant get those bolts out of the back.
Any ideas, suggestions, price to get them replaced professionally, all 4? |

what do u mean by broke the bolt? did the head come off or did u strip it? you should have tried wd40 and banging it loose. the bolts in the back are a pain in the ass. they are very hard to get loose. i used a mini sledge hammer with my wrench. also you could try a locking wrench if theres a nub to grip.
