You sir are one amazing person! Thank you for shairing!! There is only a back plate left on my rear left so heres hoping the piston isnt siezed and it goes back. !!!
Many thanks for this video PEW. Job done on my 2017 i40, and I have no issues to report afterwards. I also did the disks at the same time and getting the caliper carrier off and dealing with that suspension link arm was a bit tougher than I expected, but I managed that too. Thanks again 👍
This video was excellent. Though I have a 2019 Tuscon Hyundai the rear brake setup is identical to this Hyundai i40. This perfectly describes EXACTLY what needs to be done to change the rear brake pads on a EPB system. The one thing I'd add is that the same Allen Tool that is used to remove the two black bolts that hold the motor onto the caliper, is the same one that you can use to wind the caliper back. You can do it with just your fingers as its very easy to turn. ALWAYS TURN CLOCKWISE regardless of the side of the car (Left/Right) that you're working on. You can then depress the piston back into the caliper with just finger pressure. No clamp was needed to retract the piston. Thank you PEW!!
What happens when you watch this video after starting, and have already unplugged the EPB plug - will the brake lock or is there an error logged? Asking for a friend :-D ...
Hi, I leave the plunger wound out when reinstalling the caliper after fitting the new pads. When you pull the eBrake switch in the car, it will automatically push the plunger back into position.
Just done my 2013 i40 tourer, thank you for the video. There's not a massive amount of stuff online for Hyundai so to come across this and it work is fantastic, great job 👏
Hat auch genauso bei einem I30 GD geklappt. Der einzigste Unterschied war, dass man zum zurückdrehen des Kolben einen 30er Torx Schlüssel braucht Anstelle eines Imbus.
Thanks mate, perfect instructional. Can't believe that only 378 people (out of nearly 50,000 views) have given this a thumbs up. Hope this is monetised for you! Cheers!
Thanks mate. It’s not monetized, but just happy to lend a hand as I know I was super frustrated thinking I had to take it to a workshop for a simple pad change!
Hi, followed your instructions, wound in the plunger but piston won't budge tried turning the piston to see if that works still won't go in. Any suggestions? Cheers 😊
If you’re just using your hands to push in the piston, it might need more force. Maybe try a G-clamp and clamp the piston in? If that fails, it could be seized, in which case I’d drop some penetrating oil around the piston and leave for a few hours before trying again. If you use the oil, make sure you flood it with brake cleaner when you’re finished.
Never do this. Use aligator clips and a 9 volt battery to retract the EPB. Remove the electrical connection to the electronic parking brake and attach the aligator clips to the connections inside the electronic parking brake system. Just did it on a 2020 Santa Fe
June 2023, used this on my Hyundai i30 2017 and only difference is that the motor hex screws are 4mm. The motor piston hex hole is 5mm as per i40. Took 30 mins. per side to do (sticky wheels on hubs). 43,000 miles and the pads were down to about 1.5mm! Easy job to do.
Thanks very much PEW. Your video was great. Very well explained and easy to follow, which I did to the letter. Only problem is that after re assembly the EPB light is still illuminated on the dash, the brake icon is also flashing and the EPB doesn't want to work. I thought I had put it all back together properly and I made sure the O-ring was greased and in place. Any clues or ideas on things I should check? BJG in Oz.
Thanks, worked out nicely, though both cylinders (?) were really stuck. Used some oil, and then finally figured out to use clamps to get enough pressure to move the cylinders back in. Thanks again!
Hallo und schöne Grüße aus Deutschland bei Berlin Hab heute meine bremsen hinten erneuert und habe es so gemacht wie in deinen Video beschrieben hat alles super geklappt vielen dank
rOb C glad to help mate! I thought I needed a scan tool also.. bought one, not knowing it needed the EPB module (which it didn’t have), so then thought I’d give it a go manually. Worked out well!
Thank you for this video. I just did this job on my 2017 Kia Sportage which is mechanically very similar - the process worked perfectly and I now have fresh pads installed and the EPB functioning just fine too. Thanks!
Ich hab das heute März 2022 ausprobiert bei meinem i40 es hat einwandfrei funktioniert!!! Vielen Dank I tried it today in March 2022 with my i40 it worked perfectly!!! Thanks so much
Have you wound the electric motor clockwise as far as it will go? If so, it sounds like your calipers/motor may be seized if you can’t get them to move
No probs! Nope, once you’ve wound in the electric motor, you can simply push the piston in with a bit of force (it took both thumbs for me). If it’s stuck, try using a G-clamp or similar to help squeeze it in
You could either drop some penetrating oil down there and wait a day or two to see if that helps, or you could heat it with a torch (keeping away from any rubber) and try that. An impact driver may also help to break it free.
The piston on my righthand rear side is stuck. The piston was exposed with the rubber cover being stuck on the downside. Any tips on how to loosen or will I need to get new calipers?
@@szegedgabor I've had it in the shop twice now where theyve tried to oil it and change the rubber thing. Don't have the money to buy new calipers, it seems to be working for now but not sure for how long.
Hello.I would like to know if there is any problem for example with electric ebrake if i want to change the brake discs too or no.And when i loose my e-brake should i take out the key or what?Im sorry for bad English. ,,😕
Hi, yes you should remove the key when you loosen the e-brake. There should be no problems replacing the discs at the same time. No problems regarding your English, it’s just fine!
This is a wake up call for Lexus after owning no fewer than 6 hi spec Lexus models my last Lexus was written off for a risky change i bought a base Hyundai i40wagon 10years old 82thousand kms i still cannot believe the fit and finish on this very pleasing on the eye i had looked at vf /zb commodores in base forms most have seen better days first time I have only cloth seats i hope to keep it for many years to come cheers Stephen 🤠✌️🐨🦘🍀
Thanks ! I changed the pads in my daughters i40 Touring this weekend using your method, worked perfect !
Cameradoctor good to hear!
Brilliant shortcut. Saved my brain from frying this evening. Thank you!
Thanks dude, today i change rear brake pads in a 2018 Hyundai Tucson.

Glad I saw your video, just changed pads on my i40, with no hassle at all, very instructive video
Perfect mate, wasnt sure if i could do each side then do park brake or not so did 1 side completely 1st. Great help thanks
I just did my 2022 santa fe thank you !
J ai suivi votre méthode ça a marché nickel, merci pour cette vidéo,
awesome man, saved me some money and time. really appreciate it.

Danke für das Video! Geht das bei allen Hyundai mit elektrischer Feststellbremse auf diese Weise? Auch beim Ioniq Electric?
It should be very similar for all Hyundai’s with electric parking brakes. The parts may be slightly different but the process would be the same.
@@papaechowhiskey Thank You!
Hello, I have a question whether after installing the plates, you twist the plunger back with an Allen key or not
Hi, I leave the plunger wound out when reinstalling the caliper after fitting the new pads. When you pull the eBrake switch in the car, it will automatically push the plunger back into position.
@@papaechowhiskey Thanks for the quick reply, it's great that you've made this movie, probably many people, you've already helped me, greetings
@@papaechowhiskey Thank you! It is a good instruction, after fit the pads as first pump on the pedal, or as first pull the EPB button? Thanks!
Thanks man everyone has been screaming that I need a special tool for this but I was sure there was an easier way. This will save me so much fuss.
Just done my 2013 i40 tourer, thank you for the video. There's not a massive amount of stuff online for Hyundai so to come across this and it work is fantastic, great job 👏
Look for Kia videos too - under the body panels they are pretty much identical to Hyundai.
Great video- just did the rear brakes on my 2019 Santa Fe using this resource since they are exactly the same as the i40. Thank you!
Nice video , fick en förfrågan av min granne imorses om jag kunde göra sånt jobb runt om på hans i40 -2016 ;)
Hat auch genauso bei einem I30 GD geklappt.
Der einzigste Unterschied war, dass man zum zurückdrehen des Kolben einen 30er Torx Schlüssel braucht Anstelle eines Imbus.
I used this technique on a 2015 Sonata. The Sonata is the same car with left hand drive. Worked great. Thanks for the video.
What grease did you use for the o-ring on the epb motor?
Sind nach dem wechsel fehler in der parkbremse aufgetaucht oder leuf alles reibungslos
Thank you , just saved me a bunch of trouble !

Thanks mate. It’s not monetized, but just happy to lend a hand as I know I was super frustrated thinking I had to take it to a workshop for a simple pad change!
after that no hill holder error
Can someone tell me the Specs for the Nm Torque of the Brake-Caliper (Hyundai Kona -2021) or where i can find it? Thank you.

Never do this. Use aligator clips and a 9 volt battery to retract the EPB. Remove the electrical connection to the electronic parking brake and attach the aligator clips to the connections inside the electronic parking brake system.

Thanks for the post, job done this morning only tricky part was the hex screws on the electronic motor, took a bit of persuasion to get them out.
You used a hex key, yeah?
I had the same. Not truly seized, but not far off it! Adding just a tiny smear of copper grease when putting it back should make it easier next time.
Thanks very much PEW. Your video was great. Very well explained and easy to follow, which I did to the letter. Only problem is that after re assembly the EPB light is still illuminated on the dash, the brake icon is also flashing and the EPB doesn't want to work.

I have the same problem any solutions???

Hallo und schöne Grüße aus Deutschland bei Berlin
Hab heute meine bremsen hinten erneuert und habe es so gemacht wie in deinen Video beschrieben hat alles super geklappt vielen dank

Woe thanks mate, I got the i40 and thought I needed scan tool you made it look easy. Thanks for the information and time. 👍

Ich hab das heute März 2022 ausprobiert bei meinem i40 es hat einwandfrei funktioniert!!!
Vielen Dank
I tried it today in March 2022 with my i40 it worked perfectly!!!
Thanks so much
You said You put the piston back with one hand. In my i40 i used all tools i have and it still doesnt move. I have 2011 car. Greetings. Please help
Have you wound the electric motor clockwise as far as it will go? If so, it sounds like your calipers/motor may be seized if you can’t get them to move
Thx for the video. Do you need to rotate the piston while you push it in?
No probs! Nope, once you’ve wound in the electric motor, you can simply push the piston in with a bit of force (it took both thumbs for me). If it’s stuck, try using a G-clamp or similar to help squeeze it in
Genius, your a gent!! Finally a way through the mysterious EPB lol
Such a great help & many thanks, job well done & easy to do.
Great video. Helped me a lot today.
Thanks buddy worked a charm
Ireland?

Do you leave the ignition on when doing this job? Or remove the key completely? Cheers 😊
You can remove the key completely. I usually do this for safety reasons also.
Great one! Appreciate it
Worked a treat, thanks mate.
Mine seized. What's the solution to that
You could either drop some penetrating oil down there and wait a day or two to see if that helps, or you could heat it with a torch (keeping away from any rubber) and try that. An impact driver may also help to break it free.
The piston on my righthand rear side is stuck. The piston was exposed with the rubber cover being stuck on the downside. Any tips on how to loosen or will I need to get new calipers?
Did you get it fixed?
@@szegedgabor I've had it in the shop twice now where theyve tried to oil it and change the rubber thing. Don't have the money to buy new calipers, it seems to be working for now but not sure for how long.
@@viktorbulow3388 i sent mines to a guy in london to recondition them. He said never let brakepads go under half way and they be fine.
@@szegedgabor problem is those breakpads were new so they've been under unusual wearing due to the piston being stuck.
Good joob
What about bleeding the break line ?
That would be like any normal brake bleed, the EPB wouldn’t make any difference.
Thanks ! I've watch a couple bids and no one mentioned the bleeding ,btw thanks again for the quick response!
So You do not need a computer to do it?
No computer needed using this method.
@@papaechowhiskey ok I am asking because some people say that You can damage this smalll electric engine if You will do it manually
Hello.I would like to know if there is any problem for example with electric ebrake if i want to change the brake discs too or no.And when i loose my e-brake should i take out the key or what?Im sorry for bad English. ,,😕
Hi, yes you should remove the key when you loosen the e-brake. There should be no problems replacing the discs at the same time. No problems regarding your English, it’s just fine!
You saved me from making a mess ,I was going to push the piston with a c clamp. Thank you for the video.
I do everything else with a C Clamp too, just not the EPB Hyundai!
The audio is terrible I can't hear a word you're saying a half of all you turned all the way up all I hear is the clicking up the tools
That’s no good, sounds like a system issue on your end as the audio is clear. Maybe try on another device?

Bro dose hyundai sonata has the same electronic parking brake system? I mean is this method works for sonata 2016 ? Please answer
Hi, I’m not sure but in the comments below someone used the same process on their Sonata and it sounds like it worked.
Great video
