Break Pads & Disk

Hi all, can anyone tell me if the rear pads and disk on the later EPB equipped cars are straight forward to change or do you need a diagnostic tool for the EPB for release or reset ?

Thanks in advance for any information. 2007 TD4 XS The work horse that earns its up keep

Brakes !

They will try and sell you the wrong pads. EPB are different to the previous model with a pull on handbrake.

Did mine a few weeks ago using the "routine", you will hear it when it goes into service mode and I think you get a message in the display. FL2 MY10 TD4 GS traded in at 2 years

Thanks for the info, I've already read up about the issue with being sold the wrong ones. I will probably pay the extra for genuine ones anyway Thumbs Up 2007 TD4 XS The work horse that earns its up keep
