- This video will show you how to change brake discs and pads, exactly as the main dealers do. Equipped with Land Rovers very own guide for their trained workshop staff we'll tackle the job and hopefully we'll both learn something.
Please drop a comment if you enjoyed this video and if you've ever heard of the Coca Cola trick!
Thank you for watching!

Have you heard of the Coca Cola & Play-Doh method?
Obviously FULL FAT Coca Cola on a FULL FAT Range Rover.
Coca Cola will dissolve lots of seize stuff.
heard of vinegar being used
Outstanding gentleman. Been doing brakes on the drive for many years. The bleed nipple still scares me. You just never know if it’s going to come undone or not or brake off. Love the videos thank you.
You should use copper grease rather than normal grease between hub and disk, wont need as much either, also good for the disk retaining screw as they like to seize
Great video, really enjoying seeing real life maintenance including the challenges
Do you have to put it in service mode for just rear pads only?
For anyone wondering... leave it running in drive, have someone holding the brake pedal pop the hood remove the 30 amp fuse for electronic brake system. Put in park and turn truck off. Now you can push the piston in on the rear calipers without damage, and just slap pads in done and done.
What was the torque setting at 12.20?
Hello mate do you do customer cars or is it just you tube bits you do.keep up the good work
Hi. Would You be abble to explain how did You manage to fix stuck rear break motors? I just have the same problem today on one side pb motor stuck and thoesn't want to go back to fitt new brake pads. Would You be abble to tell what to do? Many thanks in advance M.K
Thank you for the L494 video on brakes. I recently had a similar piston reset challenge when doing my rear brakes. I have a 2017 L494. I had to replace the caliper ($525 at LR dealer blah). I'm reusing the e-brake motor from the original unit. Question: Does the e-brake motor have to be reset in maintenance mode before it is installed on the new caliper? I'm asking this because the motor is currently on the bench and I don't know "where" the motor is with reference to the car's current e-brake status. Thanks in advance!!!!
Nice one Sam
Great video! Just one question: Which diameter should the brake discs for the front have? 380 or 360 mm?
silly question what is the calibration for is that just if you take the motors off ?
They are long cables for suspension hight system and off road full articulation of the axle i think ?
If you revers the polarity on the wires to they calipers the electronically rewind back in, or two wire to a spare 12v battery ? Their are vids on youtube how to do it !
Do you have a link for that brake caliper tool?
Hola desde Colombia muy bueno el video ...👍
Hi,you didn't mentioned anything about the front pads,i bought the same from Brembo for my L320 and i thing i put them wrong like i see,i had no instructions,the one that you put in the exterior i put it on the interior 😬 There is an explanation for mounting them that way? 🤔😁
Hello gentlemen new to the channel just treated my self to a 2013 Range Rover sport l494.rear brakes need doing do you do customers cars or is it just your own for UA-cam.great content
What brand and model number brake pads are you using?
For the handbrake bit... U don't need software... If u turn ignition on, foot down on the accelerator and down on the handbrake... Turn ignition off and back on whilst still holding it will wind it back... Then inverse in the sense of hand brake and to but it back on 👍🏻
L494 2018 this function not working.
@@emililiev6699: yes that's what I found too, any resolution on this yet ?
Cheers, nice to see some maintenance, Can you please buy a cheap dico 3 and show how to get it up to standard, not everyone can afford Defenders and RR 🙂 love the channel btw.
If you put cola in a glass and place a 1p piece in overnight the following day all that is left is grit [try it]......What news on Big Red? looking forward to seeing that build !!
Full fat Coke is good for softening or dissolving superglue and also full fat Coke and tin foil is good for polishing up rusty chrome
What are the torque specs for the caliper and bracket bolts?
On the rear?
And coca cola... Worked well on a seized injector on a 3.0l one time 👍🏻
where can we download manuel
A wise man once told me to use the old pads to press against to compress the caliper. Not to sure how wise he was.
No copper slip on the back of pads ?
No sir, they have anti vibration material applied to the back of the brake pads - absolutely do not grease
Did I miss the part where you clean the new disc with cleaner to remove grease form the packaging
They’re coated discs, no grease on them because it isn’t applied to coated discs
I have used Coca-Cola to free an aluminium seat tube on a mountain bike.
Filled the whole seat tube with a 2lit bottle and a few hours later seat post was free enough to remove.
With respect to your Coca Cola comment: yes => Coca Cola is one of the best "anti seize" and "de-ruster" you can get so I am pretty sure that works very well. 🤗- untouched this would live to know what size and type of nut you use to remove the caliper holder, so you can remove the discs. Thanks in advance!
Coca Cola can also be used to clean old, rusty tools. Just put the tools in a Coca Cola bath for some days and clean and oil it.
Ah.. Just got to the bit u talk about it 😂😂
Yep, the Coke trick works. It is brilliant at cleaning tarnished metal.
bro every vid i see has 2 bolts for the caliper i have the massive one with one bolt
Coke used to work, but i think now they have removed the "working stuff" making it a bit more healthy. About the rear piston. To get it in you must rewind it with a special tool that twists and pushes the piston.
It’s not like a VW where the piston rotates, these go straight back!
Haha love this, real issues real life sorted! Get the coke out
Surely you just need to wind them back in rather than compressing them?
Wind back the park brake motor, then compress piston like a regular caliper
Coke and play doh 🤣🤣 I will see if Mike knows that one 👍👍
Never heard of the Coca Cola method but I do know that in the early days of uncoated aluminium cans that diet Coke ate its way out overnight
That’s now how main dealers do it because we never torque up that grub screw 😂😂
You don’t need anything to do the piston wind back! There’s a procedure using the hand brake button/ throttle and start button works perfect
I've always thought that. Just switch on ignition and release handbrake
@@CC-io3nc that does not work. There’s a special procedure to wind it back into service mode
Strange. I've got the electric handbrake on my vw
@@CC-io3nc just releasing an electric hand brake doesn’t mean you can change the brake pads
Would that procedure you've mentioned also work on vw cars aswell?
What if you drink Pepsi? Would that work as good😂 but cola has been used I some motor replacement
Сэм,я думал вы только Дефендеры ремонтируете.
don’t even know why you torqued up the disk retaining bolt, just a light snug is all that’s required - otherwise the next person is on the dugga dugga snap routine
you do not need software for the electric brakes it's not mandatory
My 2 post lift isn’t mandatory, but it helps! 😂
Can only imagine what cola must do to the teeth!
They look like the Audi VW rear brakes have an electronic handbrake switch that you gave to use an OBD or a Vag scan to access the MMI to set the rear brakes in service mode you can unplug the cable to the motor and put a 12v battery on the motor pins that Will either open or close the pistons when you connect the leads to the motor if it starts to come out reverse the wire connectors to the motor it should go back in to the caliper leave it on for about ten seconds when it’s gone back in then the brake pistons will rotate you can then use the piston wind back tool to push them home have a look at this video 7 minutes in

I use Coca-Cola (full fat) to de-rust cast iron pans.
my uncle used to pour coca cola on his window to clean it old lorry driver trick
Направляющие суппорта смазывать такой смазкой нельзя,должна быть другая смазка.Это не соблюдение технологии ремонта.
Was just quoted $4150.00 for a brake job on my 2019 Range Rover Sport td6. Yes, $4150.00 US dollars. Discs and pads. LAND ROVER SCARBOROUGH, MAINE. SHAMEFUL
phosphoric acid in coke eats rust guys
rr pain in arse you need to spin the thing
It would be great to have less of the music and more of a talk through as you work on things. Maybe I’m getting old but the tunes do nothing for me.......
Painted make absolutely no difference, that coating is cheap and they rust no matter what. Just saying.
