"How To Remove The Front Brake Pads on 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX"

2006 Subaru Impreza WRX Brake Pads

I want to apply Disk Brake Quiet on my 2006 Subaru Impreza WRX, but I gather I have to remove the brake pads. I assume this means I have to remove the calipers. I am a novice. Anyone know how I do this? Thanks.

Answer: It’s pretty simple and no need to remove the caliper. After securing the front of the car up on stands and removing the wheel/tire, there is a sort of a clip that is over the top of the caliper. It’s difficult to explain but I think you will see what I mean when you look. Anyway it’s a flat wavy piece of metal and you have to unhook it from one end to remove it. Then there is a s,all metal bar that goes across the caliper through a small loop on the pads. Once that’s removed, the pads just slide out. I realize it would be easier with visuals so maybe search around on www.NASIOC.com and you should find some step by step instructions.
