Had my wife watch this so she understands that these brakes, fundamentally aren’t any different than any other brakes that I’ve done. Thank you for making it simple enough for her to understand. Well done 👍
That video is perfectly clear and to the point. I will be changing the pads myself. Excellent video , thank you !!!!
Hi, is the brake pad sensor on both wheels or just on one?
Why My brake pedal hard after changing brake pads? (Mini cooper). Before it was good. Ichanged booster, vacuum pump also. But no difference
Do you have to replace the vacuum pump at any point? I’m driving with about 45k miles to the car and I’m replacing tires and the brakes and am wondering if I’m better off doing them myself and replacing the pump at a later date or waiting for the shop
Excellent video! Thank you! May I ask why we must open the bonnet?
Will I always have to change the brake sensor at every brake pad change?
Thank you for video, it is very helpful, replaced my front brake pads
1:53 your wiring plug is different than mine, it doesn't have a wasp nest.
Thank you for the great video! Is there a sensor on each of the front wheels or just on one. Can you tell me on which side of the US model?
