Mini - Video tutorial

Model: Mini Mini R55, R56, R57 - Years 2007-2014
Part: Brake pads
Operation: Brake pads replacement

Lift the car and support it on a suitable car stand; remove the front wheel and then the fixing pins of the brake caliper support. Remove the old pads and use an arc clamp to retract the caliper piston: it is not necessary to loosen the brake oil drain valve. Apply the new pads and reassemble the support with the caliper by carefully tightening the fixing pins. Repeat the same operation on the other wheel. Before setting off, pump the brake pedal until it offers the right resistance.
