Never done it before but now need to as there is some squeaking going on,so if anybody would like to go through it for me it would be much apriciated.
I guess i will start by jacking the old girl up and taking the wheel off

PS, yours will have the sliding type calipers (B), as mentioned in the article.

measure the thickness of the disc before changing pads as there's only 3mm of wear on them before they are out of spec, basically if they are noticeably lipped they should be replaced too otherwise caliper is working at it's limit from the getgo.
