Everything so clean and easy to remove .. Come work on my Mini it takes an hour to get one bolt out ...

[@dannysee1]

Some times days, those rotor screws are a pain when they strip out.

[@Millsisgod]

I think people are missing the point, it doesn't matter what language you speak you can watch this and know how to do the job. Thumbs up from me! 👍

[@autodocuk]

Huge Thank You for such a pleasant comment! Please, stay tuned for more videos. Best Regards, Autodoc Team

[@1981geg]

Just a note: the rotor screw is T50 and it is not necessary to remove the caliper supports for replacing the rear rotors. However it could be useful to check the guide pin threads because the holes are blind. Like in my case someone else before you could have over tightened them and partially or completely stripped the threads.

Top vid very helpful thanks

[@johnrumble424]

, you will always encounter your own difficulties, but great tutorials on process without the long dialogues, thanks as always autodoc.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for sharing your opinion with us

[@andyashton7049]

Top video, very helpful thanks.

[@enzoragazzoni3983]

Top video!

[@Divernate85]

its a t50 for the rotor not a t30

[@nicholaszammit8273]

Calliper bracket fastening bolts are 13mm not 16

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment, we will double-check this information. AUTODOC

[@nicholaszammit8273]

@@autodocuk thank YOU for your videos, I've used them quite a few times now

[@gordonhumphreys8143]

The tutorial says Torx T30 for the score on the rotor!? I bought these and a T30 is far too small does anyone know the correct size? T50?

[@bradriley8324]

Same problem here

[@bradriley8324]

Update: mine was T50

[@1981geg]

It’s T50

[@marcelvollebregt7364]

Instead of the special tool to push back the brake piston, you can insert flat nose pliers, push hard and twist to get it back.

[@guillermomoreno9122]

please can show how change trunk door hinge for the r50

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment! Unfortunately, we do not plan on making such video in the near future. Best Regards, Autodoc Team

[@Staygoldfarms]

Was that rotor bolt turned counter clockwise?

[@autodocuk]

This information is individual for each car; replacement should be carried out strictly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations according to the service book of your car.

[@sgsuper1150]

My caliper bracket was 13mm socket. The disc completely seized on to the hub, why don't they use cooper grease. Bad mini.

[@autodocuk]

By design of this caliper, the guides do not need to be lubricated.

[@mucho02]

*Constructive Criticism* It seems this channel is going for a very professional approach, which is cool. However to supply the best how to videos, they really need to include some sort of instructions on what's going on instead of people just following by watching. I imagine most people get the idea of whats happening, but generally people who don't know much will be looking to these videos to show them - so the more info the better.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! Thank you for your valuable remark. Your comments are very important to us to understand, how to demonstrate replacements in more details in our new videos. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@sshaunss]

T50

[@marcvarner1688]

Awful bordering on useless. This is not a 2011 and mine has a not anything like this

[@autodocuk]

Please clarify what exactly you did not like in the video?

[@alfredjamesdelgado2037]

It clearly says Mini Cooper 1 / MK1 / First Gen. 2011 is Second Generation.

[@bcsigs]

How about a little narration and interaction, not just a dude wrenching with some halfass rave music blaring
