New Brake Pads from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1ABP...
Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes. This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 2013-20 Mini Cooper.

This is the best video I've seen on Mini front brakes
This video is excellent. Clear video and narration. Best step by step out there. I followed it on my 2015 Mini and it was spot on. Thank you.
Very good professionally made video; lighting is perfect. I will be doing my 2017 Countryman soon. A matter of fact, I will probably look for your TRQ parts.
local auto mech charges over $900 for the front and $800 for the rear brakes and rotors replacement. thank you so much for this instruction. it sure saves me a lot of mullah...
Best content I’ve seen yet , especially while using authentic technician terminology, “Give it a Bonk” 😂 nice work
EXCELLLENT Concise and to the point without the normal you tube drama. thanks for the insights!
Professional, straight forward and to the point. Have always appreciated your videos. Thank you.
Thank you for this video. It is very well done and easy to understand. I had a problem where the anti rattle clips for the old pads were riveted to them instead of the clips like in this video that slide over the caliper bracket. My new replacement pads needed clips like you show. I had no idea what I was missing until I watched this. Thank you again for making these videos.
Omg thank you so much , that tip in the beginning to compress the caliper piston is freaking GOLD , I always had trouble compressing it but I’m gonna start doing my brake jobs that way
Nice clean/bright video ... awesome! Will be changing my out soon. I just did a pad replacement about 2 weeks ago in my garage here in the northeast. Took a while to get the pads in .. not really sure why but replacement pads are different for my 2017 mini countryman All4S. Tested it out this past weekend; dry... good. Will do rotors with next change.
This is one of the best and most informative videos I have seen on just about anything. Great job.
You are the best. Your demonstration and explanation are the best I've seen. Thank you for making it so clear.
Followed this video to change my first ever Brake pads and apart from two screws on each sides that were excessively tough, everything worked out great, will buy a longer ratchet for more power
Thanks I just changed my 2015 front brake pads today. Nice tips 👍
Thanks for this video. Well done and very detailed. Will be doing my son's Mini .
This video was very good. Clear instructions. Highly recommend it.
+Pat Karr Thanks for watching our video! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
Snaps the lock peice, bang job done. Nice work.
Best!!! Video I have ever seen. Very clear step by step , point to point 👍👍👍👍 10++. I love it.
Please do the rear brake if possible. Please by you again.
Thank you..pat
I have 2013 Mini Cooper S R56 N18 JW. Did my front brake follow your steps 👍👍👍
extremely helpful. not alot of new mini cooper vids on YT
Great video, you've covered more than most ppl. Ty
Great video. The grease that I use on my brake jobs is red. As in red rubber grease.
Thank you so much!!! You have a new subscriber!!
Just a question, is it normal that the wear sensor is only in the front left brake pads? Cause i just found it there, nothing in the front right side of the car.
Thanks again!
Can you please tell me what tools you used in this video you’ll make my life way easier 🙏🏾 and I also wanted to ask does that concept work on Mini Cooper 2017 ?
Excellent video, thank you very much. What happens if I just change the brake pads without lubricating the pistons
Note that you will need to replace the brake pad wear sensor if it was tripped, meaning you have the brake warning light on the dashboard. I just replaced the pads and attempted to reuse the original sensor and when resetting the warning light, I got the unable to reset sensor.
Nice video. I would avoid using an impact gun on the disc securing screw though, could make it impossible to remove in future. Also BMW recommend using no grease on the sliding pins, they have done for years as far as I am aware (it was the same on my 2005 E46). I think the rationale is that because the pin guides are rubber there is no risk of a hard seize, and the grease may degrade the rubber and cause them to wobble about.
This video made the brake job a breeze...thank you!!
Overall, very informative but please note that multi-clicking a torque wrench results in over torquing. Set the wrench using a master ie calibrated torque meter, apply to bolt or nut and click once only. - 'torqued' correctly. This is standard engineering practice.
Great video, I'm off to do my brakes now ! Thank you
Ive never done brakes on mini cooper but generally when pushing the caliper inward to fit the new pads, the fluid wants to rise inside the master cylinder. I noticed you did not open the master cylinder cap to allow for this rise in fluid. Can you mention why?
Brilliant video. Super informative & very precise. Thank you so much.
So, this can be done without bleeding the brakes?
Thank you for putting this up. Great video
Great tutorial in 'how to do it'!
Did I notice 'blue thread lock' on those caliper bolts?
Nicely done? Is the sensor only on the driver side or on both sides?
You make it look so easy!!
Hello, could you please advise the type of lube and the spray that you use.
Thank you in advance!
Excellent. Thank you for sharing this. Cheers!
+Restorology Thanks for the feedback! 1aau.to/m/Shop-TRQ
interesting that you didnt lube the pads where they sit in the hardware... nice vid.
I always find your videos helpful, but apparently they changed the brakes on the 2016 F55 Cooper S. I went to check mine and there is no caliper bracket tins on the front. Instead, there is a spring type clip connected directly to the pads. Also, the caliper slide pins are identical on the 2016, rather than different as shown in your video. Thanks.
Nice video! Its really helpful! But how can I find the manufacture specification for my 2016 Hardtop JCW🤣
Do you need an OBD2 scanner to place the vehicle into service mode before starting the process? And is there anything you need to do to calibrate it on the system side after installing the new pads and rotors?
GREAT VIDEO!!!
Dang this was really good 👍🏼 Thanks
Thank you for the video
Do u have a video for back brake pads as I'm sure my drivers passenger rear brake caliper is sticking as the pad is worn down more than the other pads 😔 an i might need to do it myself scared
My 2108 mini countryman has brake pad light service and says 1300 miles to go, do i just replace pads or do rotors as well thanks
Do you not need to bleed the breaks ?
wait.... at 7:22 you mean we can use the old brake sensor?
im sorry for that silly question bcs im a little bit confused here
Because of that sensor this isnt some reason to disconnect the battery is there?
Excellent work
Do those pad wear sensors need to be replaced, or can they be reused? Thanks!
He says pry in between the pad and the caliper, but it looks like he’s prying in between the rotor and the caliper.
Did he misspeak?
Other videos I've seen recommended a T-50 hex to remove the rotor
Are these breaks good for the S model? Because on your website your Out Of Stock, when will you be in stock again?
Excellent sir
fantastic video mate!
Strange. Our Countryman doesn't have any brake pad hardware tins like the video. None when I removed the factory pads and none came with the new brake pads.. The new and old ones have a spring built into the pad. Do I need to get some hardware too? Strange that it didn't have some from the factory. They must have screwed up at the factory.
I just had the same problem. Pads don't come with the tin guide sliders. The old pads I removed didn't have them either. What did you end up doing?
Just replaced the brake pads and front left sensor. How do I clear the brake sensor? Do I have to disconnect the battery or will it just go away by driving?
There is a way to reset the light, search RUclips for a video, it will show you.
Would these torque measurements work for a 2015 f56?
+XAssassinShotX Thanks for checking us out! We would always recommend taking a look at your repair manual to see the specific torque specifications for your vehicle.
On the Cooper s f56(2016) are the wheels 140ft lbs? +\-10
thank you very much.
Wonderful video. But too much unnecessary lubing :)
Great! Thank you!
the wheel nuts is 100nm ?
Thank you!
anyone notice they don’t sell the part used in the video
Give it a bonk....beautiful
Nice video but I do not recommend buying any parts from the online retailer A1 Auto. I bought brake pads that don't fit and they refuse to exchange them for the correct part. The website is misleading as they put 2 different car model parts right next to each other. The front and rear pads I received are for different vehicle models. When you choose your parts online for the front pads, it is right next to the wrong set of rear pads even though I put in the correct vehicle information. I also received the items with damaged packaging and it did not seem to concern 1A Auto when I brought t to their attention. It was past their official return time, but the holidays should have have some extension like most reputable retailers. So now I have pads I cannot use or return. Great customer service 1A! Do yourself a favor, use your local auto part store where they would be willing to help you out and provide GOOD customer service and they are cheaper too. I am extremely unsatisfied with 1A Auto and will never use them again.
Maybe you should remove the air in the dust boot after compressed the caliper piston... Cause AT this Time you Will Rip the boot off and cause damage in the future ! But well made after all
Dang my clips were king of difficult
My 2019 mini burned through its brakes in 18,000 kms. They replaced them for free. Clearly there's a problem with this model.
I AM WORKING ON BMW AND MINI, BE HONEST WE NEVER CLEAN THE SLIDE PIN LOL
Nice.
rotor wtf,,, brake disc,,
