Took me 2 hours so far using a jack and axle stands but still the disk is not off - it took this guy under 4 minutes to get that far - I reckon they disassemble all bolts first then fit it all back together again, before they start recording.
Unfortunately, the complexity of replacement is individual on each particular model of car and it all depends on the technical condition of the parts. Our videos are for informational purposes and show only in the sequence of replacement and to save time, we loosen some of the units in advance. AUTODOC
@@autodocuk Yes that is ok -no criticism. I was only trying to warn other amateurs like me that the jobs are not as quick as filmed - but to not despair.
I have an Octavia 1.4 TSI, 2010, presumably a 1Z4. The procedure is slightly easier as the caliper carrier bracket does not need to come off to change the disc.
WARNING Why have you not yet corrected the torque you have shown for the brake caliper carrier bolts from 75 up to 190 or 200 Nm - as pointed out by John Ralph below ?
Thank you for your attention! You are right, we made a mistake in the credits. Unfortunately, we cannot change the credits, but we will add information to the description. The correct catalog information: Tightening torques for front disc brake caliper bracket = 190 Nm Stay tuned with us. AUTODOC
Ah man I'm so annoyed, just took everything apart then realised I need an H7 Allen to get the caliper off - since when does anyone use 7mm Allens!? Literally never come across this in my life and haven't got one anywhere! Why didn't I watch the video before attempting it 🙈🤣
Exceland done sir do you have a video for repairing or replace the VGA for dashboard skoda octavia Mk1 the problem is the vga disappear data with hot weather at summer and at winter its working will thanks

Which key and brand you can recommend for this purpose? Thanks
@@sergenity 190
190 Nm
You quote 75nm torque for tightening the brake carrier bolts. I thought it was about 200nm. That’s a big difference. Which is correct please?
Thank you for your attention!

Is the impact driver 100% necessary? Can normal sockets be used?
Ordinary butt ends can be used.

What kind of spray is that? copper?
1520 Liqui Moly
AUTODOC
Is it necesary to add cooper grease? Is it not necesary to grind new pads with angle grinder?
Copper grease should only be used on threaded connections. No need to grind new pads.
AUTODOC
As far as i see in this video, you did not add copper grease only on threaded conections, but on whole surface between wheel and disk.
That's a lot of copper grease! And I'd never spray it on. A brush is far better.
