Good video. I have a 2019 Clubman and I had to use the Bimmerlink app to put my rear brakes into service mode. I could not push the caliper pistons in far enough to get the new pads on. Putting the brakes in service mode allowed the pistons to go in further.
Hi great vid, so actually you don't need a scanner to set up the parking brake into installation mode and release it correctly for mounting of the pads? I saw another vid that uses one, hopefully you could enlighten it? greetz from Holland
Hi Jake, I did not use a scanner tool at all. Just how I recorded the video is how I did it. It work for my 2019 s countryman but perhaps its different for other models that I do not know.
Hey I saw KW shocks under that tarp on the R53 ! good video but I was under the impression that electric e-brakes wont just screw back in like that ? I have the same Countryman ,thanks for the great help .
Hey... Just tried to replace the rear pads on my 2016 clubman.. I couldnt get the caliber bracket off at all... But you turned the ebrake off... Is that where I went wrong? I changed the front with no problem at all...
@@minicooperstyle0176 guy used an Autel scan tool to retract and then he just pushed the piston in like normal, instead of what we did (twist in). But guy also used t45 to remove the caliper bolts and I used like a hex 6 or 7. T45 does fit but it really is a hex. Kinda like using a SAE on a metric bolt.
Congratulations on the video. I'm thinking of changing my rear pads on my 2018 Clubman. I have the tool for the piston but I don't have the scan. From what I've already verified, I don't see any differences in the whole system compared to the Countryman with EPS. I wonder if at the end of changing the pads it was necessary to do some calibration to the EPS button? Thanks
@@joaoduarte2016 I don’t think so, since my break change I have had no indication that I would think other wise. I think it should be the same process with your clubman.
@@minicooperstyle0176 I replaced the front pads, but it still gives the error on the on-board computer. I tried your example of taking off the handbrake, but nothing happened. I have Countryman F60 2019
@@istintiostili3342 wow I don’t know if the rear break process works for the front process You would think it would, apparently it doesn’t. Is your break sensor OEM sometime non OEM sensor won’t work and you won’t be able to reset.
2021 countryman ALL4. Same setup as this one. Was going to do in until I couldn't get the cylinder to push in. Going to try again and make sure the parking brake is off and hopefully I can push the cylinder in. Mini is charging $400+ to do it
@@cummminana I purchased it thru Amazon and you need that tool to retract the piston back. It needs to rotate as you apply pressure to back it back in.

Wow, I didn’t know that! I was told that you need something like that to allow you to service the rear breaks but glad you mention it.

Thank you, much easier your way. Gonna try it on the 2017 F60 model without the scanner tool. Thanks for the reply! Grtz

Yeah, they are kwv2
I thought the same thing but once I started to take them apart, not the case
NP glad you like the vid
Hi, great video, how many torque with T45 ? Thanks
Thank you! Torque specs is 22lbs
Good video

Sorry for the late response
Yes the ebreak button has to be off
Hope you where able to get your rear breaks figured out
Just did rear brakes on the same car.
No scan tool needed. Easy and simple job.
There is another video out there that uses a scan tool to reset.
Nice, I wonder what kind of scan tool it is basic or bmw scan tool

Let me know if that work, releasing the ebrake. I am going to attempt my boy’s bmw x2 2022 rear breaks hopefully it’s the same process . Good look!
@@minicooperstyle0176 Also, where can I buy that tool you used to turn cylinder in or I could use c clamps or something else?
Can't seem to find where the brake fluid bottle is either on the Mini. May have to move some coverings or something.

@@minicooperstyle0176 Good deal. I found a set @ Harbor Freight near me. Thanks for the tips. Will try it later and update you.
