Parts for your 2007 Ford Falcon-Pedal pads

2007 Ford Falcon pedal pads — what they do and when to replace them

Pedal pads are fitted to the 2007 Ford Falcon (BF Mk II). Technical references including the Ford Falcon BF II workshop manual (2006–2008), Ford’s EPC/Microcat parts listings, and common AU/NZ parts catalogues confirm removable rubber pedal pads on the service brake (and on the clutch for manual models). The accelerator on these Falcons typically uses an integral moulded plastic tread rather than a separate rubber pad. That means “pedal-pads” are relevant to this vehicle, particularly for the brake and clutch controls.

On a 2007 Falcon, the job of the pedal pad is simple but critical: deliver secure, non-slip foot contact so braking and clutch work happens with confidence, even when shoes are wet. Over time, the rubber can harden, glaze, crack or wear smooth. That’s when grip drops off and the car can feel a bit sketchy at the pedal. Keeping fresh, grippy pads fitted is cheap insurance for safety and drivability, and it helps with roadworthy/WOF expectations.

As part of regular servicing, the pads should be checked for condition and fit. Automatic Falcons have a single brake pedal pad, manuals have both brake and clutch pads. XR or sports trims may have a dress cover with rubber inserts—the same inspection logic applies.

• Signs it’s time to replace: surface gone shiny or smooth, edge lips torn, visible cracking, rubber gone rock-hard, or the pad won’t stay seated.
• Quick maintenance tip: clean with mild soapy water and a soft brush, avoid silicone dressings or greasy cleaners that can make the pad slippery.

Replacement is a straightforward driveway job, usually taking a few minutes per pedal. Most aftermarket and genuine pads push on without tools.

1. Pull the old pad off the metal pedal plate (start at a corner).
2. Wipe the pedal plate clean and check for rust or sharp edges.
3. Warm the new rubber pad in hot water for a minute to make it more pliable.
4. Hook the bottom lip on first, then work the pad over the top until the retaining lip sits fully around the plate.
5. Press all the way around to confirm it’s properly seated and won’t slip.

There’s no fixed kilometre interval, but a good rule is to inspect at each service. Daily drivers or utes that see lots of in-and-out traffic can chew through pads quicker. For parts matching, note auto vs manual, and if in doubt, confirm by VIN—BA/BF pads are commonly shared, while FG differs.

FAQs

Does a 2007 Ford Falcon have pedal pads?
Yes. The brake pedal has a replaceable rubber pad, and manual models also have a clutch pedal pad. The accelerator is commonly an integral plastic tread, not a separate rubber pad.

How often should the pedal pads be replaced?
There’s no strict schedule. Replace when the surface is smooth, cracked, or hard, or if the pad won’t stay put. Checking them at every service keeps things safe and tidy.

Are BA, BF and FG pedal pads interchangeable?
Many BA–BF brake/clutch pads interchange, but FG often differs. Always check by VIN or part number, and match auto vs manual.
