As a long time fan of Haynes Manuals (Dad has an impressive collection) I now work writing repair methods for a vehicle manufacturer and really appreciate how clearly you presented this.
10/10
Thanks
Thanks for posting this. Completed the swap with zero hiccups. Gonna purchase the manual just to show my appreciation.
Glad it helped
Follow up. I did finish the rear brakes on my ‘18 4 dr S model. I was unable to reset the ‘brake’ fault warning however after reusing old sensor. Your results may vary, but save the hassle, and the extra shipping charges, and order sensor with brake pad kit. Only 10-20$. Worthwhile. It is impressive, and idiotic, that BMW has managed to create disposable sensors. The copper clip came off mine when I removed sensor, and apparently causes the sensor to fail, even when replaced. Easy job overall and this video is spot on.
To be fair to BMW, they do say that the sensors can't be reused. If they're not worn through, it may be possible to get the old clip to work again, but for the small extra outlay, is it worth it?
@@HaynesManuals I agree. And yes, it is a small outlay. And yes, when you buy a “bmw”, you are buying every single sensor and electronic gizmo in the world, which will increase maintenance costs. New cars are designed to be taken to the dealer by people who are not interested (or capable) in DIY. Thank you guys and ladies at Haynes for helping shadetree mechs like me to do some things ourselves. A Learning process for sure
…or if you are in the middle of the desert, you can cut the sensor pad off and twist the wires together, when the circuit is complete it thinks all is good, no more brake wear warning light, so keep an eye on them.
Disclaimer: (cough) I would NEVER do it this way
First class explanation - Are the Haynes manuals now digital like this, so much easier than interpreting the written manuals (ie see section 1 for jacking, section 4 for brake reservoir, section blah de blah. This way its all in context and easy to follow.
What size brake pads are these?
Such an amazing content!! do you guys have this procedure for the F56 cooper? thank you so much!
Not at the moment, but we'll bear it in mind - thanks!
Isn't that an F56? I know my 2017 Cooper S is an F56🤔
F56 is exactly the same as this
Will this tutorial also work for an F56 mini cooper?
Yes
hi i have your book but i can't find the torque for the hex bolt whit washer (m12x1.5x33)from the calliper carrier for the rear brake (i see in the book 30 nm + 90° is correct ?)
thank for your reply
sorry for my english
Yes, that's the correct figure
@@HaynesManuals thank a lot
Your website seems to only have stuff for gen2 minis?
We've produced manuals for most variants of Mini from 1966! Pre-2001 are hard copy printed manuals only.
Is there any trick to lining those two pins on the inside pad with the dimples on the caliper piston? I spent 90 minutes wrestling with that. Bought the tool to rotate the piston back into the caliper. New pads wouldn't fit over the rotor. Ended up having to just slap on the old pads, and I'm going to take the car to a shop. Pretty disheartening, considering it's $700 to replace at a shop, and I bought the parts for $150. I've replaced numerous pads and rotors previously, and never had issues until working on German cars. It's like automotive knowledge gained throughout life doesn't help when working on German stuff.
According to the manual, there's no requirement to align any pins on the inner pad with the cut-outs in the piston face. The cut-outs are there to aid piston retraction. Make sure the pad with the bulge in the backing plate is fitted to the inner location.
What's this about the sensor needing to be renewed?
In order to replace the brake pads, the wear sensor (where fitted) must be pulled from the pad backplate. BMW/Mini insist that once the sensor is removed, it must be renewed. I believe this is because the clip that retains the sensor is distorted during the removal procedure, and therefore will not securely retain the sensor upon refitting. BMW/Mini don't supply the clip as a separate item. However, if the sensor is worn (activating the light on the dash), the sensor must be renewed anyway.
It's for extra revenue. Nothing more
@@aarongrisham5555 aaro, does this mean you have reused sensors with success on the Mini? I have on bmws but yet to try on this Mini
@@dennisblack6042 yup
@@aarongrisham5555 I will find out tonight. Doing rear brakes on an 18 and dont have the sensors. Thanks
