You will need to deactivate the EPB before working on the rear brakes and then reactivate when finished the electronic parking brake system is incorporated in the rear brake calipers the procedure is :-

Essentially, just the discs and the pads but... ... Theoretically, you should replace the caliper mounting bolts (LR000098 x 4) but some re-use the old ones with a spot of Loctite. Also, when I did my fronts recently, the head of one of the Torx disc retaining screws (LR002080 x1) simply shredded - very soft metal. I had to drill the screw out and replace with a new one (actually replaced both sides). These screws are the same front and back so one to watch out for. My car is also 2013 and it’s first disc change. TORQUE Settings (Haynes Manual) May be useful. 133 Nm - Road Wheel nuts 110 Nm - Rear caliper bracket to hub carrier bolts *Do not re-use old bolts 30 Nm - Rear caliper guide pin bolts 35 Nm - Disc Torx Screw= 35Nm |

All the mechanics I know reuse the caliper bolts unless they are really knackered.

Re: caliper bolts, now my vehicle year is different as is the motor, but I order my pads from LR dealer and asked at the time if it was necessary for me to get caliper bolts...............I was told as @jules posted above. Only if I wanted to or if the bolts were no good. |

Land Rover covering their own backside perhaps...? I replace mine because they are cheap enough. The front bolts get a fair old loading (200 Nm). A bit stretched perhaps? Not being an engineer I don’t know about this sort of stuff but at around £4 per side... probably as cheap as buying Loctite that I’d never use again until the next disc change. |

A wee bottle of locktite sits on my garage shelf and is rarely used but its always to hand on the few occasions that I need it Landrover - turning owners into mechanics since 1948

Thank you for this info. I thought there might be a hidden problem for changing the disks. |

In 45 years in the trade, I’ve never fitted new caliper bracket bolts 'just because', never added locktite to caliper mounting bolts but I do fit new caliper bolts (complete with locktite already added) if they come with the pads and unless I’m training students, I don’t use a torque wrench on those bolts - you get a feel for how tight bolts should be with experience. Oh, and if I have to drill out a disc screw, it stays out. The wheel bolts hold the disc in place, not that little screw. I personally don’t know any other mechanics that do any different either.

In fairness Steve, you are an experienced mechanic/technician. Those of us that aren’t, in the absence of experience and a feel for things like bolt tightness etc, are probably better off sticking to things like torque wrenches and instructions. |

I destroyed a locking wheel nut once cos I accidently set the torque wrench to lbsft instead of Nm -

Caliper bolts are advised to be replaced with new because they are also known as stretch bolts... The clue is in the name ! |
