  Q: How to service and repair the front brake pads on Ford Contour?

  A: Service and repair procedures for front brake pads start with loosening wheel nuts followed by raising and supporting the vehicle before removing the wheel. Disassemble the brake pad clip while detaching the Brake Caliper securely while protecting the flexible brake hose from getting damaged. The installation begins with removing first the bolt covers and then the bolts which allow removal of both brake pads. Before installing new pads you should fully retract the caliper piston while knowing that piston insertion will create a fluid leak from the master cylinder. It is important to thoroughly clean the disc faces before putting on the inner brake pad while also using the outer pad next. Reinstallation of the caliper involves fastening the bolts followed by replacement of bolt covers then pad clip installation and completing with wheel installation.
