What's up friends! In this video we are going to change the brake pads on the Golf (Lola) because they were already squeaking with every brake stroke, and also, since I bought it in 2020 I hadn't done anything to the brake pads haha and oh surprise, they weren't the ones it should have, so we put everything as it should and it was 100% ready to go for another 2 years :) I hope you like the video and that you learn how to do it, I would appreciate your comments to keep improving! Tips for mechanics: Wear protective glasses. Wear gloves (believe me, you will thank me). Before starting to work on the suspension, apply WD-40 to the screws. Use threadlocker (blue) on the screws so that the vibrations do not remove them over time. Get a breaker bar. Invest in tools, it is the best thing you can do. Always keep your tools in order. Cleanliness in your workshop is essential. Never leave a caliper hanging. Always have a snack available. If you're just starting out, use your phone to take pictures of your process so you don't get lost when you're putting it together ;). Always mark your bolts to make sure they don't come loose. Even though spark plugs come pre-gauge, it never hurts to check. Check your levels before you go on a trip. Subscribe to Avila Mk2. Always use the tool for what it was designed for. Invest in a tool Measure twice to cut once. Never try to loosen a 3/4 with a 1/4 ratchet. Keep an eye on the 10mm. Protect your ears. Calibrate your torque wrench. Organize your parts. Learn about new materials. Use an inspection light. Align wheels properly. Test drive post-repair. Know the tightening sequence. Have a magnetic extender. Investigate recurring problems. Label your tools. Protect yourself from chemicals. Keep a maintenance log. Always test the battery. Make efficient use of space. Drink water.
