Mini One (2014 - 2018) - Replace the front brake pads

[@tintoretto526]

Thank you for the great video! Is there a sensor on each of the front wheels or just on one. Can you tell me on which side of the US model?

1:53 your wiring plug is different than mine, it doesn't have a wasp nest.

Had my wife watch this so she understands that these brakes, fundamentally aren’t any different than any other brakes that I’ve done. Thank you for making it simple enough for her to understand. Well done 👍

[@HaynesManuals]

You're welcome

[@MarioVargas-yf2nl]

That video is perfectly clear and to the point. I will be changing the pads myself. Excellent video , thank you !!!!

[@HaynesManuals]

Awesome, thank you!

[@miniaddict4534]

Excellent video! Thank you! May I ask why we must open the bonnet?

[@HaynesManuals]

Thanks! the only reason is to be able to check the brake fluid level

[@miniaddict4534]

@@HaynesManuals Thank you for clarifying!

[@muhammedmansoor2879]

Why My brake pedal hard after changing brake pads? (Mini cooper). Before it was good. Ichanged booster, vacuum pump also. But no difference

[@HaynesManuals]

A hard pedal is normally a sign that the servo vacuum system isn't working...Can only suggest that you double check your work.

[@logannunes1774]

Do you have to replace the vacuum pump at any point? I’m driving with about 45k miles to the car and I’m replacing tires and the brakes and am wondering if I’m better off doing them myself and replacing the pump at a later date or waiting for the shop

[@HaynesManuals]

The vacuum pump is intended to last the lifetime of the vehicle. No need to replace it unless it fails.

[@assettemirkhan7087]

Thank you for video, it is very helpful, replaced my front brake pads

[@HaynesManuals]

Glad it helped

[@sewing33]

Will I always have to change the brake sensor at every brake pad change?

[@HaynesManuals]

That is the recommendation from Mini/BMW

[@klakier8520]

Hi, is the brake pad sensor on both wheels or just on one?

[@HaynesManuals]

Normally, just on the N/S caliper
