    Thanks just done rear pads on my F45, 2er active tourer, your video helped me out a lot.
    F45 has a male peg to drive the handbrake, no need to 'go in with the 45!' Just turn between your fingers. 7mm allen key for slide bolts, screw them right out. Unclip the hose & the caliper can sit on the box the new pads came in.

    Hi,
    Many thanks for going to the trouble of putting this video together with a very good picture and audio, it is very much appreciated.
    In the end my job was made easier by the fact that BMW on X5 F15 2.0L Diesel S-Drive (Australian model) have relocated the electric motor away from either rear calliper ... I suspect this might be the same for other X5 F15 Models, but I don’t know.
    The BMW X5 F15 2.0L Diesel S-Drive (Australian model) also use two E-Torx E14 bolts to attach the rear calliper on its mounting bracket. It’s the same on the front too ... and both are single calliper pistons. I can’t recommend it but I had no trouble using my standard 14mm socket to remove them. I’d anticipate as you move up the model range the bigger callipers will use bigger bolts.
    I also changed the rotors and on this BMW X5 F15 2.0L Diesel S-Drive (Australian model) they use a 5mm Hex to attach the rotor to the axel hub in addition to to the wheel nuts / lugs.
    Thanks again for posting the video it is very much appreciated.
    Regards,
    Matthew

    I know about trying to twist these in as I damaged the passenger rear of my RLX and now have to find a replacement from a used parts supplier, much more reasonable than the dealer and I can replace it myself...funny how you break something,then become an expert at it!!!!! Thanks again for great video footage, I have learned to research before touching these newer autos. i have found a replacement caliper assembly for just under $100, verses a new one at the dealer for almost $845, I will install after my cruise is done.
