Jaguar xf brake pads Videos

Good Video but you forgot to mention that the O/S/R and N/S/R pistons are left and right hand threads respectively. they are not both the same thread. there was no need to remove the hand brake cable to do that job but still good video. :)

Thanks for making this video! It came it very helpful! I have changed out pads and rotors on three or four cars before but on the X-type I got stuck not being able to compress the piston on the caliper. Didn't know you had to rotate the piston!!!!! Also Advanced Auto gave me the wrong pads for my 2005 X-type 3.0 because there are two styles that depend on the VIN #.

I've got a 2003 x-type 2.0 litre petrol and want to buy the rear pads online - is there are variation in the brake pads across any of these models that I should be aware of? I'm not techie enough to take the parts out and have a look but any tips from you will help. Thanks.

You forgot to mention the two bolts holding the carrier are different lengths and must go in the right hole,can't remember which one is longer but it's about 1-2mm longer and will bottom out in the blind hole ,which causes the caliper to rattle

Good video! Only one thing. U dont need to get bothered with the handbreak, just leave that part out. :)

Hi, just to help anyone doing this job - there is a much easier way to release the handbrake cable from the self adjusting mechanism than using a pair of grips. there is a nut on the back of the mechanism, lean over the caliper and put a 13mm ring spanner on it, you can now use the spanner to lever the mechanism and slip the cable free. Using grips is a lot more difficult as they are prone to slip off the mechanism and require a lot of pressure. I hope this helps. Thanks.

Excellent presentation on this video!

Did this today, great video, really quite easy to do following your instructions, saved me a a couple of hundred quid. thanks! Might try the back next.

Before anyone uploads a "How to..." video they should be made to watch one of your videos to see the way it should be done. This is an excellent job, thank you so much.

Big thanks for this video. Much appreciated.

Just did the front pads and rotors watching this on my Samsung Smartphone. This was the first time I've ever done brakes in a car. The instructions were perfect. Just taking your time and having the right tools makes all the difference. And of course your help. Thanks for this wonderfully easy to follow video.

Very handy video thanks for making it, going to do bake and front disc and pads.

Keep doing x-type videos. I have one as my first car and I know nothing
