Attention! Replace the pads as a set on both sides of the car.
Check the condition of the brake shoe linings periodically (see "Brake system - checking technical condition") and replace them without allowing the linings to wear to a thickness of less than 1.5 mm.
The work is shown on the brake mechanism of the right wheel.
