Brake Pad Removal
Brake pads are okay this year, but will probably need replacement next annual. DA62 Pads are not similar to DA42-VI pads. Instead of rivets, there are pins that the pads press onto. For the life of us (and with no help so far from Diamond Canada) my mechanic and I cannot figure out how to remove the existing pads from the pins. Any help from you guys would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Brake Pad Removal
It'd be good to see a picture. What's the manufacturer? Offhand I'd say you use some sort of destruction technique on the old pads.
