    Hi,

    Went to change the front pads on my Skoda Octavia MK2 (1.4 petrol) but cant find the right size bit (allen key) to remove the caliper pins. Anyone know what size I need.

    Thanks

    P.S. - Have done pads on loads of cars so not a novice.

    It is a 7mm allen head. Some sets don't have 7mm in them, only 6 and 8 which may explain why you are having difficulty.

    Any decent motorfactor/tool supplier or even halfords should sell the 7mm key for brake calipers.
