XSeries-forum

Hello. I have just joined the forum and I wonder if anyone can give me some information on replacing the rear pads on my car. I have access to stands and a trolley jack etc so is this an easy task and how difficult is it to replace the sensors and do they need logging into the car's magic box

I think you need to be plugged into a computer for the electric handbrake...

Thank you and yes it does need to be plugged in so I had the work done by a garage. They had the kit for the job

Hi guys,

This is a really easy job to do on the X3, if you're half handy with the spanners you'll manage it no problem.

It's very much a diy job and there's loads of videos on you tube showing you how to reset the electronic handbrake and the service computer.
