Jaguar F type rear brake replacement... kinda

I attempted to replace the rear brake pads however the pads are deceptive and didn't need doing yet.
The procedure to put the rear brakes into maintenance mode is:
Ignition on
Handbrake down then accelerator down
Before releasing those 2 turn the ignition off and on again
You should then hear the caliper retracting and see a message to confirm

Hi Louis, not pointless at all. Always great to see people tackle jobs such as brakes on their own F-Types. You also jogged my memory for the maintenance mode for replacement etc. At my last service I was told that the brake pads were at 50% with a looming MOT, I just said, ok it should pass then!! No advisory either! except tyres, as usual!.

Yeah easy job really no caliper rewind needed, I'm thinking of upgrading the pads surely those groves means there's less contact area

Good video. I just did my V6 FType brake pads at 30kmiles. Two thoughts. My front brake pads wore quicker than my rears. I also opted to have my rotors “recut” or “turned” which was about 50 USD per rotor. Jag allows for 2mm of wear before the rotors are inadequate for use.

Mines at 30k the fronts look fine, difficult to measure the wear on the disc with the lip in the way

Are you not aware that front brakes do 90% of the work stopping the car? That's why your front pads wore faster, it's perfectly normal.
