I wanna change my own brake pads on my accord this weekend but wanna make sure i do it right ...never done it before but i hear it's relatively simple...

 

do yourself a favor and others on the road by purchasing a Haynes or better yet a Helms manual before you attempt to do anything with your brakes. Or better yet, have it done by a professional and save your money/time now then later on

you shouldn't be doing anything, changing pad will not let air in unless you accidently dropped the piston.

not to sounds like an **** but are you sure you are ready to tackle this?

 

Ok sounds good....and yes, i m ready to do this i know its not somethin you want to screw up but it's also not rocket science
