Hi peeps, I've heard that the front brake discs and pads are difficult to change on the Smart for two from a DIY perspective. Can anyone advice on if its a DIY task and if there are any bits i need to watch out for?
451s are a little different than the 450 shown (caliper bracket held by 18mm standard bolt head rather than E18) but not enough to worry about.
The job is as easy as any - not like an old Renault where you had to press the hub off the spindle to get the disk off.
