I love your videos. Been a volvo S80 owner for 3 weeks now. I did my rear brakes today. I used a 9 volt battery with two wires to reset the parking brake. Saved me from having to remove the electric motor. If the piston starts moving out you just swap the wires around on the 9 volt battery. Made quick work of the job.
Where do you attach the two wires to?
Were does battery go
@@markrichardevans5011 I did it 2 weeks ago. Just detach the harness and there are only 2 prongs. For mine to DETRACT the EPB the positive of the 9v goes on the left prong and the ground goes on the prong to the right
Good idea!
Did exactly the same thing yesterday.
I was in the middle of the rear brakes, thinking they would be as easy as the fronts, but no! So I came here and you presented it exactly like I needed. Thank you!!!
Glad the video helped!
Thanks for sharing the excellent video. Removing the electric parking brake motor assembly seems to be a common DYI practice on many modern cars. However I ended up reversing the electric parking brake using a 9V battery and it worked out very well, so wanted to share that here. I fabbed up two wires with yellow female blade connectors. Then attached the wires to the two flat connectors on the motor. I then set a bit of tension on the piston with the brake piston compressor and held the wires onto the 9V battery. It was easy to tell if the motor was going in the wrong direction, and then just reversed the wires on the battery.
Will this stop the parking brake warning light from having to be reset ?
@@chuckmckee2741 I don't know. I can't recall if the brake warning light was on. I could have replaced the pads before the warning light came on. Either way, you must reverse the electric parking brake one way or another when installing new pads.
Great Video, thank you so much. After watching, I had the confidence to tackle the rear brakes on my own XC60. All went like clockwork. Had both sides done in 90 minutes. Saved a fortune on main dealer prices.
Best video I've seen on replacing Volvo brakes of this type. The EPB is the main reason I have avoided replacing the rear brakes myself but after watching your video I will definitely replace the brakes myself.
+unoguy9928 Easy! Go ahead. Just replace the motor seal kit. I have added the part numbers to get it cheaper from Land Rover. I did not replace on the video because of price.
This is actually a excellent video. I followed you all the way through. Finished my job in half the time. LOVE the child saying mama several times. You sir are a great asset.
Hello, did you put the electronic handbrake into service mode in VIDA before replacing or did you only follow steps from video? Because I got info that hand brake must be in service mode before replacing and I am trying to find the way how to do it without VIDA. Thank you for help. Greetings Michal.
I did not have Vida at that moment. You can use 12 V battery to unwind the motors
You are an excellent teacher for us!!!
I have a D5 185 2009 and yours videos are perfect!!!
You can propose a video of turbo actuator because a lot of people have the same problems and they think its necessary to replace all the turbo 🤦♂️... its a mistake because in 80% of time its only actuator!!
Thanks for all!!!
Thank you thank you. Saved $300 in Orlando Fl. No code or errors in 2017 cx90. Good help. Love to hear the baby in the back ground.
I like the way your assistant is making their voice heard !😃
that wasn't his assistant,that was his boss.
I don't know where I would be without your videos. You keep my wife safely moving on the road. Thank you so much.
Thanks for the video. After about 30 minutes of trying to compress the piston I watched a few videos that had me convinced to put the old brakes back on and drive 4 hours to the dealership so they could charge me $1000 to install $65 in parts. Luckily I watched this whole video and was easily able to finish the job. Thank You
+Sagebrush Aviation Glad I help!
A great help. Did the job (both rear breaks and callipers) in 2 hours, only 4 bolts and a torx50 screw needed to dismantle the lot. Re the electronic handbrake. 2 torx30 screws to separate the motor from the piston, torx40 to wind back the piston then easy to use a G cramp to collapse the piston. If you use the battery method you have to put pressure on the motor casing to collapse the piston. Also did the front pads and discs (just as straight forward), paid £255 for all 4 wheels, dealership wanted £1,100
Thank you! I love how you kept everything brushed and clean. I did this today on a Volvo 2011 XC60. I used a hint from the comments and used a small 9V battery with 2 alligator clips to retract the electric parking brake, instead of the disassembly and manual rotation in the video. Squeeze very gently with the c-clamp, run the 9V battery for 5-10 seconds, and repeat until both are fully in and/or gently stall out. This is a minor point. Thanks again for a great video!
Next time I will use the battery method as well. Thx
Isn’t there a service mode in VIDA/DICE that retracts the electric parking brake?
@@dcapobres Just put 12 volts on el engine . One position+it gonna brake. Change the wires each other + and it gonna unbrake. 7-12 second are enough. Then just press the piston.
Thanks. Worked for my 2105 XC60. Removed motor and wound it back as you mentioned. Then cycled e-brake three times, no flashing lights on dashboard. All is good.
These are the best videos for do it yourselfers!
Thank you for your videos. I have a 2009 xc70 and you videos are a great guide for the essential maintenance jobs to keep her healthy
Great video! I've owned 7 Volvos over the past 37 years. I love working on them when I can. I appreciate your videos!
7! That's a lot!
Finally did this job. Video was very helpful but some comments talk about using an external battery to activate the parking brake so you can compress the piston. The problem with that method is you have to know which way the motor is turning. If you turn too much in the wrong direction it is very difficult to fix. One side worked well for me; the other I must have crossed the wires. Next time I would do it the way the video shows and just remove the motor.
You did an excellent job with the amount of rust. I am a BMW tech, but had a volvo, wanted to familiarize myself with the EPB on Volvo, great job! Thanks
Thanks a lot , this worked perfectly for me. The dealer wanted 600 bucks and we did it ourselves for $50 .
This is an excellent video and very informative. I have been replacing brake pads for years but never replaced brake pads on a vehicle with EPB before. This video made it so easy. Thank you and best wishes from Ireland.
Great upload, thanks for sharing! The shop quoted me half a fortune for this job. I followed the exact procedure on my V60 -12 today and got the job done in a jiffy plus saved a bundle!
+Jenzino Swe Nice! Glad to help
XC70 owner here, Brilliant ! Thankyou for taking the time to show us , good lad 10/10
I LOVE hearing the next generation of Volvo mechanics in the background. Thank you for a very informative video. It really helped when I did it.
I just replaced my rear pads using the "connect 12V to the motor method".
Here is the detail:
Rear brake pads - Volvo with EPB (Electronic Parking Brake)
Leave handbrake on
Jack up and remove rear roadwheel
Remove slider bolts (13mm & 15mm spanners)
Remove EPB motor plug by puling upwards. This is the most difficult bit. You will need to slide a small screwdriver upwards into the latching mechanism at the rear of the connector. Keep the tip of the screwdriver in contact with the body of the connector (the bit which is part of the motor), whilst sliding it up. The tip of the screwdriver will gently prise away a latch, which is part of the connector on the end of the cable, away from a projection on the body of the connector.
Power motor release using a 9V or 12V battery. Drivers side forward most pin negative to release (passenger side is the opposite). The motor runs for about 18seconds if the pads are fully worn out.
Pull off carrier, pads and slider shoes
Replace shoes (if one is rubber coated, fit this to the upper part of the caliper)
Put a small amount of silicone grease on pad parts which touch the slider.
Use Sealey tool to retract piston slowly (don’t turn the piston, just push it back slowly). Keep an eye on the master cylinder level to make sure it doesn’t overflow.
Put caliper back. Replace slider bolts.
Power motor in reverse (reverse the polarity of the wiring) to seat piston (about 3sec).
Press brake pedal to seat pads.
The worst part is releasing the plug from the EPB. It is probably woth repeating that bit (I broke the first connector before realising this).
The part of the connector which is fixed to the motor body has a small projection (like a ski ramp) on the back. The free part of the connector which is on the cable has a clip which rides up the ramp when the connector is pushed home, until clip reaches the end of the ramp and drops drops off the end, so clipping it in place securely.
To release it, you need to insert the screwdrive upwards (running it close to the body of the fixed part of the connector). As you do this, it will lift the clip away from the end of the ramp, and so allow you to pull the connector off.
Very valuable comment. I will add this to the video description later. Thank you for sharing with us.
An excellent description of this method.
I was concerned about how the parking brake would be "reset" back to a home position after the entire brake motor mechanism was backed off and new brake pads were put in and the entire assembly was re-installed. You explained it perfectly! Thanks!
Good day Youri, great instruction and superb quality. Today I will change my S80 rear breaks and disks. Piece of cake thanx to you.
Much appreciated mate, regards from Volvo country 👊
Hello to Sweden!
Good video, but a few things I would have done differently.
No need to take off the parking brake motors, I use a 10amp 12 volt power supply to wind the plunger back, its faster and easier.
I did not see you clean the packing oil from the replacement discs or clean the hub mounting surface and protect the surface with copper slip, I would recommend doing this every time on a disc and pad change.
It's good practice to inspect the slide pin rubbers and pins, check the rubbers for tears and cracks and the pins for uneven wear, I always clean off the old grease from the slide surfaces and pins then renew with proper slide pin grease, not copper slip.
I always use a torque wrench to re-torque all brake system nuts and bolts on reassembly.
A little bit of anti corrosion grease on the mating surfaces of the road wheel and bolts helps next time the wheel is removed, good opportunity to inspect the tyre too.
Good luck with your next service and stay safe.
Thx for all great tips. This info is helpful to everyone..
How to wind the plunger by using 12v???
I have seen some comments that disconnecting the plug to do that activates the service light. Is that true?
@@markhooper9267 Not true. To get the plug off the motor, slide a thin screwdriver upwards against the body of the connector to release the clip.
I did this job too a short while ago, but didn't want to deal with removing the motor. What we did is disconnect the wiring harness from the motor, then apply negative 12v to the plug on the motor. You have to watch the motor to see what direction the piston is moving. If it's still moving out, then reverse the leads. Once it screws all the way back in (you can hear a different sound if you listen closely), and then you're done. Now you're not having to replace the seal, Torx, etc. which also saves time, $, and trouble, especially if you live in a very remote area like me, with an hour travel time to my nearest Autozone
Just did the rear brakes on my sister's S60 using this video as a guide. Everything went smoothly and works great. Thank you!
Nice!
So it was the same on the s60? I'm changing brakes on my V60 this weekend so I'm curious :)
MajorDork70 yes, everything seemed exactly the same. If I didn’t had to jack up the car and take the wheels off the job would’ve only taken five minutes per wheel.
Great Video, thanks, I started to replace the brake pads and got lost when trying to push the brake piston back. Good explanation for the electronic parking brakes.
Молодец, спасибо! Всё подробно и наглядно. Тоже очень люблю Volvo и предпочитаю по-возможности что-то делать сам, т.к. живу в США, а с руками и головами здесь есть проблемы.
Good tips i used 9V Battery metod all went well. Thank you. (Finland viewer). V70 2011.
Nice video! A small tip the next time you mount new discs: clean your hub very well with a wirebrush. If you don't clean the hub you'll risk the disc is not mounted flat and then the disc wobbles....
+Sailor X good one.thx
The video quality is glorious.
Really well done.
Bra jobbat . Hjälpte mig.
Much better than any other video that I have seen. Thank you!
Thank you. Soon front brakes will be done. Will be a detailed video on that.
@@volvosweden looking forward
Отлично! Сегодня проделал всю процедуру...прошло,как по маслу!!! Спасибо за видео...Дополнительно обмотал лентой проводку до электомотора...оч.хорошо!!
Thanks! Big help.
Replacing the rear pads on my wife's 2008 V70 this weekend. Great tips below about retracting the EPB motor. 9v batt and clip leads. Wow, that's a lot of corrosion under that car. Thanks for the video.
Thank you for this video. I'm helping a friend with their XC60 and I was wondering how to get around the EPB. Thank you for showing us!
Many thanks for a very informative video. Your video gave me the confidence to tackle the replacement of my xc60 rear brake pads and discs. The problem I came across was I could not undo one of the 30 torx head bolts holding the motor on, so I used a 12 volt adapter to wind the motor back, this worked well and overcame a big problem and proved a simple and effective way. I did not have a large enough G clamp to compress the piston back but I found that the use a motorcycle tyre lever and piece of timber, together with some strong levering enabled the piston to fully retract although I did bolt the caliper on to one fixing to give a better leverage. I did have some difficulty getting good access to the 15mm bolts due to the electric motor being in position but I used a knuckle joint to overcome this. My xc60 had covered 41,000 miles and one side had heavier worn pads than the other although both discs had worn to their minimum thickness. Again Many Thanks.
could you explain how you connected stuff to wind the motor back? Planning on doing this job tomorrow
Спасибо за ваши информативные видео, помогает в обслуживании нашей машинки.
*Love the Quality, how did I miss this Channel!!!*
Worked like a dream and saved me a good deal of money. Thanks very much.
+kisilvan Glad to help my friend.
I finished my rears in record time! Thanks for your video, it really helped.
+Doogie G Excellent.
You can see Volvo had lowered hardware metal quality in post 2010 cars. See how rusty are these after 2-3 years.
2001-2009 model would not rust like this and had great bolts/nuts quality, easy to undo even after 10 years in salt.
Здорово, Юрий!!! Спасибо за очередное отличное видео!!!
Just completed same job on my XC60. Really helpful video. Thanks.
I saw two things wrong. I diden’t see you clean oil film on the new rotors and you looked at the brake pad instructions, men don’t read the instructions ever! :) good video.
Thanks!
nice video, only one advice, don't forget to check, clean and grease the caliper slide pins, because that could be a mayor problem
Awesome video Sir. Thank you so much!! I'm ready to give it a go this weekend.
Easy job. Feel confident
Well done! Thank you sir, with regards from the USA.
Thanks
Excellent video. I am watching this several times before I tackle my first brake pad and rotor job on my 2015.5 XC70 TC AWD with EPB. Never done brakes before.
I have a Left Rear Tone Ring problem which I was not able to solve. It got read as a Wheel Speed Sensor issue at first. I changed the Wheel Speed Sensor with ATE replacement and the code changed to Tone Wheel. I cleaned the tone wheel twice, inspected and found no breaks--shiny and clean--it is not castellated (no teeth) just a steel band.
At a loss for what to do, I took it to Volvo Stealer--the dealer said it was the ABS BCM and wanted to charge me $3,000 to replace the module--I think they are trying to rip me off. I don't think it is the BCM--the WSS tries to sense, and I hear the clicking and then it throws a fault and the ABS/ESC light comes on and the CVM and Tire Monitor lights follow.
Since my rear brakes need replacement, I decided to change the rear pads and rotors myself rather than pay the dealer the $800 they wanted to do so.
Instead of Volvo rotors, I've decided to use Bosch Quiet Cast rotors because in their description, it is explicitly stated that the rotor includes a ABS tone ring. I tried to confirm that with Bosch but the support guy would not confirm it--said other rotors have tone rings too--I asked why is it then listed as a special feature--I don't think he even knows.
Anyway, I will use Yuri's video to help change the rear pads and rotor. The video is great, shows exactly what to do. I hope the Bosch Rotors will also solve my ABS tone ring problem--how it will, I don't know at present. I will use my Foxwell 510E Scanner to service the EPB.
On the 2015 XC70, supposedly the tone ring cannot be replaced separately and requires an axle replacement. However some persons on Volvo forums said the non-castellated tone wheel on the 2015-2016 XC70's rarely go bad and it is the wheel bearing.
One of the Bosch Quiet Cast rotors arrived, the other is ordered but out of stock on Amazon at present. The rotor does not have a tone ring incorporated--as the Bosch support guy said.
The Amazon Product description had said:
Bosch QuietCast Features:
" Homogeneous heat flow
Superior heat dissipation
Blah, Blah AND:
ABS sensor rings included (on required applications): Trouble free ABS/TCS operation"
and
"OEM style ABS tone ring (on required applications) provides trouble free operation of Antilock Brake and Traction Control systems "
And the Bosch Website description said, as Key Feature:
"ABS (Anti-lock Braking System) sensor rings: Allows for trouble-free operation of ABS/TCS on ABS/TCS equipped vehicles"
So it is confusing. My wishful thinking was that this rotor would solve my ABS Tone Ring problem. 😶
I ordered Volvo Genuine brake pads rather than Bosch.
Great video I need this week. Just like all your other videos. Very good, thorough work.
Another in depth video that will save me time this weekend. Thanks! Great video.
You should paint the calipers with anticorrosive paint to prevent the rust because this car is with few years and change the brake hose rust or paint the metal parts of the brake hose for the same problem.nice video and congratulations from Spain,my english is bad,sorry.
Thanks for great video!
I just did brakes on my Volvo XC60. First side took me ~1.5 hour, including trip to the store to buy torx-50. Second side was much faster - about 20 minutes. And I did NOT use the trick with reversing electric parking brakes, I took it apart as author did - piece of cake!
Glad my video helped!!!
Very nicely done. Wish I had seen this before taking my 2012 XC60 in for inspection. Great job!
Thank u so much! I just got back from having my car inspected and they said next time I'm gonna need brakes and rotors so now that u showed me how to overcome the electrical end of the system it should be easy. Again good video and thanks
this video made the job go fast with no problems Thanks
Complimenti per il video. Molto chiaro e interessante, grazie al video sono riuscito a sostituire dischi e pastiglie alla mia V60! 👍🏻
Great video again. Did it already. Your cars suffers exactly the same from corrosion. Norwegian/Canadian climate, to much salt. I struggled much more with the two bolts (15mm) and needed to you extreme force to get it loose. I use a dice with Vida and set the brake's first in 'service mode'. Then you don't have to remove the EPB motor and turn it back. Thats really something very useful whille working on our Volvo's :-)
Feel like I will order VIDA soon. I emailed you yesterday. Thx for the complement.
You've got mail. ;-)
Top job mate. Just done the front and rear discs and pads and this video has saved me a lot of time and money. Thanks
Andy
The sticker on the box is 'Made in Sweden' :-)))
So, thank you fot your videos from France
Thanks for the video, did mine yesterday after watching this without too much of a fight!!
Хорошая работа, а главное полезно и внятно !
Проделал тоже самое на моей ласточке V 70 согласно вашему видео.
Спасибо вам за старания!
+Sergiu Raileanu Рад что вам помогло.
One tip, always clean you're brand new brakediscs with alcohol or brakeclean, because the manifactures sometime coat them with an thin oilfilm to provent rust :)
These dont have to. They are in bags for that purpose.
Спасибо за видео, все сделал как Вы показали - работает! Про головки на 15 и ключ на 15 указали, у меня их не было, купил за ранее!
+ENDUROUSER Супер! Рад был помочь.
Great Video. I broke one of the bolts holding the e-brake, Had to take to a shop. Tech's are able to wind the e-brake back without removing it.
Юра, спасибо!!! Теперь точно сам буду менять колодки, когда придет время замены.
Great video! I can't stand that the Volvos are such a pain the arse to work on compared to my Japanese cars.
I saw if you have the Vida system that you can put the rear brakes in service mode. This would bypass removing the motor. When complete you need to remember to remove the service mode in Vida
I'm going to go with PowerStop Slotted Roters. Love your video's, step by step perfect demonstration on how to DIY at home
Brilliant video and very helpful to me today whilst doing a rear brake change.
Many thanks.
+ritchie799 Thx. Glad I help.
Great video, I use the 12volt method to rewind,and that worked just fine.Also, I didnt remove the bracket which holds the caliper,the disc can be removed without dissasembling this bracket, give it a try.
Wow. Thx for the tipnonbthe bracket. I will try next time.
Excellent video as are all your services. Very clear and informative.
Showed me what I needed to know to change my xc60 brakes and rotors, thank you!
Stewart Mayer n
That was one of the best videos I've seen for DIY work on a volvo. I just subscribed because I do work on both of my volvos when I can and wasn't sure how to deal with the electronic parking brake. Well done!
just did this yesterday
if you have the right tools and have loosened up the bolts you can do both sides in about 40 min
the trick on the caliper is to fully wind in the take up screw and then press in the piston
we lubricated under the duct covers with silicon spray grease to ease the return of the piston so it doesnt grip and bugger up the rear discs which is a common fault on these cars
the front brake is really weird as its needed to split the caliper to change the pads
you need a really good torx bit to release the 4 screws and a m7 uncommon size allen key to undo the guide pins
Great job and thanks a lot, i followed exactly your video, just To remember to turn off the EPB before to work 😉😉👍👍
Thanks for uploading how to do that. But when I change I always clean new discs with breakcleaner 😀
Thank you! This made the job very easy!
Excellent video. I enjoy all of your videos related to Volvo XC70.
Thank you so much for the video. I have a 2008 S80 t6 I'm doing rear rotors/pads on. 👍
Just did it on XC60 following your instructions. Great!!
... good vid!
.. thank's, and greetings from Finland 🇫🇮
... and so cute, because little children sound backside.. 👋👍
Thank you very much for making this video. It is very informative and helped me change my Volvo brakes without question.
Great video, thanks. Might depend on the model, but generally do NOT have to remove the main caliper bracket (those two red lock title bolts) to replace rotor. Since there are no lug studs, the rotors easily pivot out from under the piston bracket. At least on my 2014 S60. Saves a TON of time. Same on front - do NOT split the caliper with the 4 Torx bolts - seems to cause more problems than its worth. Remove teh two bolts under the plastic caps, swap pads and rotor and you’re done.
Michael, I have the same 2014 S60 T5 59k miles. My 2nd Volvo. Had my brake pads & rotors replaced by a mechanic last week & they couldn’t seem to figure out why the brake pedal seems soft, like it goes too low to the floor. Then they replaced my master cylinder which I don’t believe it needed to be. They bled them, then decided to replace the vacuum booster line. Still the same. They had my car for two weeks & I finally decided to take it to a mechanic familiar with European cars. So the new mechanic, He bled them & said the rear brakes have air trapped in the line that after idk how much brake fluid he went thru but told me he thinks the other shop messed up my abs system & added that his computer didn’t read the abs system. Now I have to take it the dealer. After watching these videos though I’m learning a lot about the break system for my car. Fingers crossed I can get them fixed without getting ripped off 🤦♀️
@@sherrygzen did you ever figure out what it was?
@@huntermitchell-yh9fo Took it to the dealer that “has a protocol” I was told after two weeks of my car being there, they replaced the master cylinder again & claimed it was not installed properly by the previous mechanic,replaced the booster again (still the same problem) and finally the abs pump they wanted to charge me $3000 just for a new part or $300 for an old beater part from a junk yard.
Why didn’t they just replace the abs pump in the beginning? Got me!! $3800 later and an old abs pump seemed to solve the problem but what a rip off. I think it’s important to take a European car to a mechanic that knows European cars. Period
BECAUSE OF YOU I DID MINE ON MY OWN ...THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR HOW TOO ...NEVER MIND THE NOISE!!/ HATERS
Excellent video for doing Volvo rear brakes. Thanks
Thanks for video friend. yes easiest way is activate with diagnostic (VIDA or any better diag.) service mode for electronic break and it will release piston. I bought china VIDA it is really worth it ;)
I will buy VIDA. Later. Thx
Thanks for The videos its very nice to watch because so spesific instructions and shows how really the rusty bolts are opened
Cannot thank u enough! Greeting from Malaysia and Singapore! Love all of your vids! Outstanding qualities and very precise informations!! Thx!
Your youtubclip was great help when I service my S80 3.2. Thanks!
Большое спасибо за пост. Я шаг за шагом поменял задние на XC60, и все работает.
Thank you for showing this process. It is very well presented.
I suppose those thumbs downs are from mechanics who'd tell you, I'd need to run a diagnostic. 😲
So glad I live in Portugal, that is a lot of rust!!! great video!.
Good demo. Keep making detailed videos. Thank you
Thank you so much for this info. I couldn't get the piston back in and it was because of the electronic motor. Thanks!
