how do you change the brake pads on a mk5 escort?

Remove wheel,

remove retaining clip in the retaining PIN at the bottom of the caliper.

Tap the PIN out using a bridle or similar tool

Lift the caliper from the bottom and "hinge" upwards.

remove old pads, and clean caliper up with some brake cleaner.

Insert new pads, making sure you have used copper grease on the BACK of the pads. (makes sure theres no squeals)

Re-fit by reversal of re-moval
