In this video I replace the worn rear brake shoes, rear brake drums, wheel cylinders and then bleed the brakes/change the brake fluid on my 2008 Smart Fortwo 451 Passion 84 BHP Turbo.
I explain the operation of the self-adjusters, thoroughly clean the backplates and apply copperslip to the contact surfaces between the shoes and backplate to prevent brake squeak.
I used the following parts:
Apec - Brake shoes
Febi Bilstein - Brake drums
Pagid - Wheel cylinders
Napa - DOT 4 fully synthetic brake fluid
The braking efficiency was vastly improved following this repair.
