One of the finest videos that comprehensively explains the entire process from beginning to end. I appreciate how you've edited out the mundane aspects such as bolt removal and installations. Well done!
Thank you!
Yes …great explaining!
Mission accomplished, no warnings, no issues. Thanks!
Glad I could help
Top, top video. very articulate, step by step procedure. I did my friends Volvo last weekend, following your instructions. Worked a treat.
Glad I could help!
Just finished doing my friends Volvo. This video explained it to a T. Everything worked out as described in this video. Thanks for the help. Finished the job in 1 1/2 hours :}
I’m glad the video helped you out
**BEST VIDEO** on this I could find. I followed his step-by-step directions and everything worked perfectly. I, unfortunately, had to use NAPA parts vice OEM - recommend planning ahead (our Volvo dealership parts dept is closed on Sat / Sun). NOTE: I did receive a fault/error "PARKING BRAKE NOT FULLY RELEASED" when I first started the car (2018 XC90 T6 Momentum). I could not get it to clear so disconnected the battery for 10 min and reconnected and the issue was resolved. Thank you for making a great/accurate video.
You’re welcome. I’m glad I could help.
Compared to other RUclipsr. This is best of best one. Very easy to follow. Thanks
Glad I could help
Hands down!
EXCELLENT for the guy who doesn’t do this but is mechanically inclined. Only thing got me nervous is when I ratcheted the caliper plunger OUT (was feeling it out) it wouldn’t stop and then it wouldn’t go back in- Let them know to squeeze pressure on it whilst they begin the ratchet and it’ll start pulling in. Secondly I think taking that yellow clip off and pulling the motor power is easier before taking the shroud off. But your method of explaining is absolutely nice and elementary as we need it. Keep up the good work
Glad I could help
Way easier to use a 9V battery on the connector pins after removing the contact. Motor will turn itself back. If it goes the wrong way, swap + and -.
Brilliant video looks nice and straight forwards. Really nice to watch a video so that there is no surprises.
Top man,,... my diagnostic tool failed to access the procedure...it was excellent on German cars..your video was excellent so I didn't lost my customer...many thanks..
You’re welcome anytime
There is a function on the dash screen to disengage the automatic emergency brake. I did that and then proceeded to remove the caliper without removing the electric emergency brake as you did. And rather than compress the piston I turned it, as there are two divots that are intended for that. Perhaps turning allows you to bypass the removal. In any case the emergency brake still works after pushing the button, and I reactivated the auto feature on the dash screen. Also I didn't remove the caliper pins, but cleaned them after removing that piece of the caliper. Not sure if I took shortcuts, but I am confident with the job.
Certain years, have that functionality where you can put your car into service mode, but some years you cannot this was one of them
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic It isn't a service function- you have the option of having the parking brake automatically. Not everyone wants it to engage every time the car shifts into Park...
Which way did you twist in the piston? Tks
You are absolutely right
That is the right way to do the job. Nice and easy. Just done my discs and pads in half an hour time,🙂
@@jonmullaly7497clockwise. If you use piston rewind tool you will be only do it one way turning clockwise and it will push same time. Nice and easy
Thanks a lot! Your video helped me successfully changed my brakes. Hundreds saved!
Glad I could help
You DON'T have to remove electric motor. Just uncheck the option on the screen "engage parking brake automatically when engine turns off"
In this case when you switch off the engine parking brake remains in fully off position and you can rewind the piston normally using piston rewind tool. Goes back nice and easy. Just done mine discs and pads on S90 2017.
At the time of making this video, this car was fairly new and there wasn’t a lot of technical info on how to do it. That’s why it was done that way.
Thanks for the detailed explanation👌 I have a 2021 XC 90. I'm looking forward to my upcoming work😇 Greetings from Frankfurt, Germany🤗
You’re welcome
Best video explanation for this brake job! Before going to the caliper, what settings must be done inside the vehicle?
Some vehicles have the option to retract from the screen in the vehicle but on this vehicle since we didn’t have that option, we didn’t have to do anything on the inside read manually rotated those calipers back
Great work. Why do not you use the center display settings to tackle removing the electronic brake motor?
As far as this model Volvo for the US spec didn’t give me any options on the display screen, and it wasn’t supported by my scanner so I did it the manual way
I thought the option on the screen only keeps the handbrake from activating when turning off ignition, but does not wind back the electric motor?
Thank you. I have icarsoft cr max not it didn't work on my v90 2019 so I needed to do as your instructions.
Glad I could help
Thank you.
Thanks for video --it is very well done. The OEM pads that I bought for my 2018 XC90 didn't come with the springs that you showed in the video that are used to push the pads apart. I would like to order them, but am unable to find them listed in any Volvo parts diagram that I can find online. Do you know what the part number is or where I can find them?
Glad it helped! Those springs I had all came in a kit from Volvo I would call a local dealership they should have them in their catalog.
Thank you soooo much ! Ur video helped with DIY roters and brakes
Glad it helped
@The Enthusiast Mechanic do you have a video on how to get the yellow parking brake icon on dash info screen to turn off ??
@@MC-zl1ik I do not this particular Volvo that I worked on didn’t have the light on for me to reset it however, I think you can do it through your radio from the my Volvo apps
Great video. Thanks very much.
Great video however you created a curious thought in someone mind as to why you didn’t finish showing how to complete everything. I would think you would have a second video. Iam not sure what year Volvo you are working on. Also , is this the same process for new Volvo’s as well. As a subscriber of your channel please show a complete start to finish thank you.
Hey, thank you for watching and subscribing. I definitely appreciate it!
I always say the year in the intro when I mention what I’m gonna be doing on the car in the video.
The reason why I don’t mention what model years this process is the same on is because I cannot foresee what the manufacturer is going to do for the next model year. They may completely change something so the video can only be as relevant as the time they are filmed there’s no way to know if Volvo‘s going to use the same brake set up for five years or 10 years and so on .
The video is complete unfortunately it’s not going to be a step-by-step guide. I do work in a shop where these vehicles do have time frames to get back to the customers so I film a start to finish video with as much information as I can to show you how to do the job at home . Unfortunately I’m not gonna be showing me loosening up every single bolt that’s gonna make for a very lengthy video, which more than likely people would not like to watch. Plus sometimes it’s very hard to get a camera in a certain angle to show something in those scenarios. I explain it as best as I can.
I hope this helps with a few questions that you had have a great day!
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic I can respectfully say that yes, Volvo’s can be challenging at times and That having worked on my 2011 XC60 was a pain in the rear. I often have to get a manual or go on line for information. Have a certificate in auto mechanics and EPB is a area that I have not worked on thanks.
Awesome video. Thanks man!
You working on a 2018 Volvo is it the same process on a newer Volvo.
I have a 2018 volvo xc90 at 60k miles and it needs a 3rd rotor replacement. This is unbelievable. Do you know of a more robust upgrade rotor?
I’m not to sure I’ve always used the original ones from the dealer and never had an issue.
It's a great vid. Thank you for this. Can you mention the torque for the screws of the calipper and the motor for the electronic handbrake?
The motor i did hand tight be careful they are fragile!!! The rear per Mitchell is 90nm + 45 degrees
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic Thank you so much.
Hello Mike, I replaced my disk and break pads as described in your video everything goes well, but now I received the message on the display that parking break not released fully, although I am able to drive the vehicle perfectly. Any suggestion please. Thanks
I would double check make sure you placed everything back correctly. If you’re getting that message you might have damaged something in the process.
Man, thanks a bunch. Very helpful and informative. 5 ⭐️
You’re welcome!!!
Excellent Video man it helps a lot.
Glad I could help!
Great video. Going to try this soon
Thank you!
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic I just changed the rear brakes on my wife's 2018. It went exactly as you said. Great step by step video.
@@kaoz250f1 glad I could be helpful!
YOU ARE THE BEST THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING YOUR KNOWLEDGE. GOD BLESS.
Glad I could help!
Xc 90 rear brake job
Yea
Good work 👍🏻
Thank you so much 😀
what about the brake fluid level?? cap release.etc.
This vehicle that I worked on, never had the brake fluid added to it so after doing the brakes, the fluid went to the correct level didn’t need any addition or removal of any fluid I didn’t mess with the cap.
14:10 that’s what I needed… vida tells NOT to lube the pins and you don’t do it either, compared to other people who are specialised in Volvo brakes 😊 thanks and i won’t lube the pins on my Volvo.
I go with what Factory does and originally from Volvo. They do not come with any lube on the pins.
Mike! Help! I turned the ebrake motor too far in the wrong direction (my hand was holding the caliper and I didn’t notice the piston was coming out). Now the piston won’t go back in. How do I get it back in? I tried opening the bleeder, took the cap off the brake fluid reservoir, etc. not going back it. 😢
If it went too far and you can’t thread it in spinning it in the opposite of the way you spun it off you may need to replace the caliper.
Thanks Mike. I managed to get it back in place and back together with varying amounts of pressure (on the piston) and turning the ebrake motor back the other way. Thanks for the video, it helped me a lot.
@@WilliamWood1 glad I could help and glad that issue was solved
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic😅🤦
After tightening the that shaft gently do you to do anything to it on the reassembly???
Just make sure it lines up with the motor and that’s it
Do I turn the star pin back to how it was ? Before putting motor back on
Nope you just line it up with the motor
What are the torque specs for the calipers mounted brackets and the Allen head slide bolts for the calipers?
I don't give out torque specs due there can be changes from the year-to-year changes on models they may differ. I'd recommend looking them up for your specific year that you have sorry im not the most helpful with this,
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic totally understand.
Hi!
I want to change my rear brake pads on my volvo V60 2019, i think it looks quit identically.
Can i ask you why did you change the rotors, mine looks exactly the same i have 50.000 km's on the car but i dont think i'll need to change the rotors.
There is no edge in the rotors.
Thanks in advance!
Should be similar i replace he rotors due to the customer requesting it.
Is removing the motor necessary
Without the scan tool yes it’s the only way to get to the shaft to spin it
Do you need to turn ebrake shaft back to original position when your done before you reinstall pb motor
No, just retract it and line it up with the motor and install it back together
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic Isn't this related to the issue some in this comment section have with the error message that parking break is not released fully? I mean because the position has been changed.
@@kuunop this parking brake system doesn’t really know where the position is. It just knows on and off. It’s not an intelligent parking brake system. So if you were to change the positioning, it really wouldn’t notice or no unless there were something electrically at fault.
great vid 👍
Thank you!
I wish i watched this when I did mine. i was able to replace the brake pads but damaged the parking brake motor..
That’s unfortunate but if you ever need it, it’s always up here now if you change them again
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic haha true. I did mine 2 approximately two years ago using 9v battery trick and it failed. And since then my emergency brake failed. Now I have a great guide, so I just ordered a third party EPB motor and will replace it using your guide. Thanks for the great guide again!
@@lahahaman you’re welcome
What are the torque specs of the caliper bolts and bracket bolts?
I did this a while ago to be quite honest with you. I don’t remember those specs I look them up every time.
I took caliper off before i turee the parking break motor now i cant get it to go back in??? Please help.
You have to turn it to be able to push the piston and otherwise it will not go in
I did my rear brakes follow to the T on my 2019 xc90
maybe a week later I have a message on on dash parking break temporarily unavailable. . I wonder if this was because of the job. has anybody had this issue? Hopefully somebody can help me with this.
Hey, how’s it going? I’ve done this job on several Volvos this way. Never had an issue and a lot of people that have watched this video have done similar and they haven’t had any issues. You should check the connections. Make sure everything is plugged incorrectly and sealed correctly. that would be my only idea hopefully it can help.
@@TheEnthusiastMechanic thanks for the reply. Had my mechanic put scanner to check ELECTRONIC BRAKES. You could hear them operating. We checked the continuity in the harness and EPB everything checked out good. I wonder. If it’s in a software issue update or glitch. Check all the connections the harness and follow the wires back. Everything looks good.
Can I change the caliber as well or do I need scanner
You don’t need a scanner to replace the caliper
Is bleeding the brakes necessary after this job?
If you’re doing what we did replacing pads and rotors, you don’t have to we didn’t open up any of the hydraulic portion.
Piston popped out with pieces of spring and ball bearings everywhere!
Your caliper might have been bad, or there is a possibility. You probably spun it the opposite way, instead of retracting it, you were detracting it.
My brake pads didn’t come with clips, is that a problem
Some cars have hardware and some dont if you take it off and don’t have it clean it and re use it alot of cheaper pads don’t come with hardware
