Nissan X-Trail 2017 with electronic hand and brake rear brake pad and disc change.

Carry out rear brake pad and disc change start to finish.

Thanks. ps. the small looped spring of hardened steel which begins touching the rotor near the end of the pad’s useable lifespan, is designed to make an audible, relatively loud noise (scraping) when it eventually comes into contact with the disc. Posh ones have an electronic wear indicator sensor, linked in to the vehicles CAN (Car Area Network, i.e. modules management) system. Okay! 😁👍🚘

hi andrew , great informative video thank you sir . i tackled this job last night without watching your video first and also without the wind back tool . needless to say i got nowhere , wind back tool now ordered lol . ive read on line in different forums that you need to connect to a diagnostic tool in order to wind back the caliper electronically but you didn't need anything like that so im going to give your way a try tomorrow . thanks again .

[@FrankBaetsen]

Hello, just curious - did it work for you without te electronic rewinding ? (What did you do to push back the caliper ?)

[@44peters]

Top man for taking time to do a very detailed video. Keep up the brill video's

[@nicennice]

Excellent video. Very clearly explained. Going to be doing this tomorrow. Garage wants to charge 800 euros for something that will cost me

Thanks for taking the time to make this good video

Top video Andy, just what I needed!

[@bbailey4383]

To anyone watching this video. This is a great video. However i encountered an issue with this method. On winding the piston in from the outside, the internal thread jammed and the handbrake stopped working on one side. I cured this by removing the servo motor (plastic part) on the rear of the caliper and inserting a torx socket into the spline of the caliper and freeing off gently. In future I will 100% be removing the servo motor prior to rear pad replacement.

Great job....but....you need a scan tool to retract the electronic brake motor....then the caliper piston just pushes back easily....no screwing the piston because you could damage the epb motor or caliper piston

[@prophet2914]

Thanks for your comment, I'm not a professional mechanic, I just want to DIY job. I no longer have the vehicle.

[@niuck]

Great video. Well done lads

[@marcelschlebos3975]

Good instructional video well done.

[@Pricey1209]

Good video. I did mine easy enough. After a few months though there’s a bit of brake squeal when breaking. Goes away when pressing a little firmer. Would break squeal mean pads need changing again ? Or needs new shims

[@davecrist5075]

Hi I’m doing my rear brakes soon thanks for the video I’m a tadd nervous but I’ll let you know how I get on 🙈thanks

[@petersomthing9508]

my brake kit never had a 3 pin part , but you can buy on ebay just by it self , also best check rubber on sliding pins and that you have movement and clean and regrease

[@ali.su1994]

Thank you bro 👍🏼👍🏼

[@huntersun6697]

Based on this video we do not need touch the electronic parking brake motor but other similar videos use either computer or manually use batteries to remind the piston via the motor. Is it risky to rewind the piston without touching the motor?

[@Pricey1209]

Good video. How would you replace the seal if needed? I’ve got same brake system and need to change my seals. So I’m trying to find how to with the electric brake

How to release handbrake for 232x trail

[@elektroniknissanx-trailrog2641]

Y did it wrong!!! First disconnect the motor and rewind the Spindel ... then use the rewind tool!!!!

[@ovidiuandrei1702]

Is that ok for the electronic sistem?

[@prophet2914]

I believe so, however I'm not a trained engineer! I've just done this as a DIY project.

[@ovidiuandrei1702]

Yes, i have do it and it is work 100 %. Nice job!!! Thanks for your jobb!!

[@arfsgonenuts3165]

All you had to do was disconnect the cable from the motor and connect a 12v supply to the terminal and it would wind back itself

[@prophet2914]

Well, if what your saying is correct than it would be a good idea to put a video clip up and show people how to go about it. I've not done it or heard of that way before. The more information and videos on the best way to do it is surely better that nothing.

[@arfsgonenuts3165]

@@prophet2914 I've seen it done also you can take the 2 bolts off the motor pull it off and wind back the piston with a cordless drill ,all my discs and pads were done there.

[@prophet2914]

@@arfsgonenuts3165 I've seen the plastic motor cover, but I thought it best to leave it alone, after all, I thought I might get a fault code.
