For anyone struggling to get the maintenance mode to work, it's important to get into the car, turn the ignition on, the handbrake OFF. Thennnnnn hold the EPB switch off for 2 seconds etc.... doing it with the handbrake ON didn't work for me. The handbrake would go off, but no service mode message. It's an important step that took me forever to figure out. I have a 2017 xe.
That's brilliant, thank you, I'll be doing mine this weekend. A handy tip I've used in the past is to zip-tie the caliper to the suspension spring while you work on the carrier and disc. This saves any accidental pulling on the break line.
Thanks so much. Your video has been cross referenced and hyperlinked by the RR Velar Owner’s Forum. Really appreciate the clear, simple and straightforward video. I only ever worry about the EPB and risk of throwing up an ABS error. Your video will help me this Summer change the pads and discs all round - a job my franchise dealer will charge around £1.3k to do themselves. Best wishes.
With regards to maintenance mode as I think I said it little to fast in the video, this is the correct way of doing it this will work on every XE produced the sequence is as follows: Turn ignition on first. Hold EPB switch in "off" position for two seconds, then, keeping it pressed, floor the accelerator for two seconds. Holding both in the same position, toggle ignition off then on rapidly - EPB goes to "service" or "maintenance" mode. Turn ignition off and replace pads. To reset - do the same thing but holding the EPB switch in the "on" position. Hope this provides some clarity? Thanks for watching Jason
Hi Jason. Just to expand on the clarity. You tell viewers about using the 7mm hex/Allen key. But don't advise on the size of the socket required for the carrier bracket bolts. May be handy for someone. What is the size btw? Lol
Brilliant! Wish I'de known how to put my F Pace in service mode prior to doing my brakes. The alternative is manually releasing the P brake by turning on the ignition while holding down the brake pedal, pressing down the park brake switch, removing the wire from the park brake motor at the caliper, turning off the ignition and finally removing the caliper. After installing the new pads and rotor, the park brake motor is removed from the caliper, then the caliper piston splined shaft must be turned to full stop to allow pushing back of the piston. Once the piston has been pushed back, the p brake motor can be reinstalled to the caliper carrier.Lastly the p brake wire is reattached. So when I say brilliant, I'm not kidding. Thankfully, I won't be doing this again for a while, but look forward to making the job much easier.
A good Gardner has a Green thumb, so I guess a good brake man had a Red one! lol good video. my 2 cents I like to give a pressure wash first, and use brake clean on the pistons before depressing them. and then a little grease on the slides for the pads to move freely. I have the same brakes on my 19 XF I painted them red in place when I got it now after watching you I will know what I am doing when I replace my pads thank you! from the USA!!!
Thanks for the kind words! And yes the red hand was rather annoying I couldn’t get it off for days! 🤣 yea I completely agree with your 2 cents giving everything a thorough clean and greasing up the sliders is worth while! I scrubbed all mine up using a wire brush then going over it all with thinners/brake cleaner and they still look good to this day! Nice to have some viewers from across the pond! Jason
For my 2018 North American F Pace and XE - the above works IF the parking brake is turned off first - so add FIRST: Turn on the ignition, engine off. Step on brake and simultaneously press the E brake release. Let go and take your foot off the brake pedal. Then start at step one above.
Procedure requires the vehicle in the Park or Neutral position, with the ignition turned ON (the engine must be OFF) and the parking brake system released. Press and hold the parking brake switch in the release position. Wait one second. Press and hold the accelerator pedal in the wide open throttle position. Wait one second. Set the ignition OFF and back ON immediately. Make sure that the ignition remains ON until the operation is fully completed.
Really could do with a crib sheet for putting the car into maintenance mode as the method described didn't work for me. Also the calliper pistons have presented issues. Further research suggests the use of a piston wind-in tool. I would like some clarity from the author as with hindsight I wouldn't aptempt this job on the basis of the video.
What issues have you had with the pistons? These cars don’t need to the use of a wind back tool they are not a wind back type as you see in the video I push mine back. With regards to maintenance mode this is the correct way of doing it this will work on every XE produced the sequence is as follows: Turn ignition on first. Hold EPB switch in "off" position for two seconds, then, keeping it pressed, floor the accelerator for two seconds.

Hi, many thanks for both your Jaguar XE brake and full service videos. Excellent work. These are really helpful how-to-do-it videos. Have you done anything for brake fluid replacement?
Thank you 😀 glad I could help. No sadly never covered a brake fluid how to on the jag and since sold her. Not terribly difficult to do however any general brake fluid how to guid would be the same in the jag
Great vids as usual and really informative . I am worried about the brake disc pads quality. Can you Please recommend a brand to use ? Thank you so much . You are great 👍
Thanks for the kind words! I used pagid brake discs and EBC brake pads, but there are plenty of quality brands like Brembo, Bosch and Pagid that do replacement discs and pads you won’t have any issues with brands like them. Hope that helps Jason
@@TrackAndBeyond Thank for the reply . As usually a pleasure 👍. I will gonna bother you with one more question . I got 19inch wheel’s. Not sure if that matters. When i try to buy brake discs I’m getting 2 type or results. 300 mm diameter or 325mm for the back . And for the front 325, 316, 350 mm . Which one i pick ? Or it doesn’t matter the size . Omg I’m so newb at this . 🤕🤕🤕
Yea there are a few different options depending on what spec and engine etc you have. Best thing to do is take a wheel off the front and measure and then do the same with the rear before you buy them. Hope that helps Jason
Great video my Jag XF MY16 needs rear brakes changing as they are rusted and gone, do you know the size of the discs for a XF i expect same as a XE I'm thinking its 325/326mm?
On my XE they where 300mm disc size I’m not sure on XF could well be the same these are what I used:www.ebay.co.uk/itm/302856836103 Hope that helps Jason
I tired this on my Velar, got it into maintenance mode easily, now I can’t seem to take it out, weirdly enough the brakes are locked on and it still says it’s in maintenance mode on the dash, any ideas how to fix this?
Hello. Please comment on the torque settings. In one post you say" For front and rear Caliper Carrier Bolts (which must be renewed) stage 1- 70nM then stage 2- 120 degrees". What are these stages, and what do you mean by degrees? Many thanks
Hi, nice job. Do you have a maintenance manual for Jaguar XE ? I want to know when should I change the plugs, when I need to verify the direction and so on
Sadly I don’t no. However if you log on to the Jaguar main website you should be able to view your service manual and will tell you last time they’ve been changed and when they’re due next ect. Hope that helps Jason
I just tried this this today… followed the instructions given in this video but was fighting with the brake piston for about an hour trying to get it back in, now the pads are done, the car will not get out of handbrake service mode. Any ideas to get it out of the service mode? I’ve tried the same method as getting it in (but with raising the handbrake this time) but nothings working, and the handbrake is essential locked on. I am really not wanting to call the RAC to my driveway…
Good morning, Sounds like a strange one are you 100% sure the parking brake was in service mode? If you’ve had to fight the pistons and now the hand brake is locked on it sounds like it was never in service mode. Other than using a diagnostic tool the only way to put it out of service mode is exactly as you say by putting handbrake on whilst doing the steps so nit sure what else to suggest. Jason
@@TrackAndBeyond it was definitely in service mode, the car is still saying it’s in service mode 2 days later. Having to get the car low loaded to the jag garage tomorrow 😒
I read on a forum that the car needs to say in service mode with the ignition on, throughout the whole procedure to prevent an error message being logged on the cars computer. Is this correct? Or can I turn the ignition off again once it’s in service mode? Thanks.
As far as Know it stays in service mode until you tell it bot to be, I turned the ignition off then back on and I didn’t have an issue. Hopes this helps Jason
Thanks for the video Track & Beyond. I started to follow the steps. However, the caliper 7mm hex sliding bolts under the plastic caps are not budging. Any recommendations or tips? Tried some WD40 but no movement and its taken our a wrench already.
Managed to sort the really tight slider bolts and bot them off. But have now run into a completely separate issue. The piston that was against pad has decided to disassemble itself. Which I imagine my service mode wasn't working properly? and the parking break decided to come back on? Metal part of the piston on the floor - break fluid dribbling out and ball bearing all over the floor. I feel like this is not a good thing. Fixable? Or a costly mistake?
@@AL-wx3xs oh man that sucks!! It is fixable. First of all you need to see if the car is in service mode but if it’s not you can’t now put it in service mode as you shouldn’t press the brake pedal as brake fluid is going to shoot out! It’s almost a case of just putting the piston back in to the calliper but you need to make sure all deals etc are fine so it doesn’t leak break fluid. Not sure how comfortable I would be doing it if you haven’t done it before tho
My local garage said you should only 'wind back' slave pistons via a compurt link to ECU, otherwise serious damage could be caused to EPB operation. I noticed you just forced them back !
At the beginning of the video I put the car in service mode on the dash for Electronic parking brake, you must do that first or yes your mechanic is right.
Literally just finished work driving home and my jags starting clicking when it hits a place turning right. Anyone else had this issue? I’m worried just bought this second hand 🥺
What's going wrong? I cannot get the damn thing into maintenance mode, despite following the instructions to the letter. Jag XE 2019/20. I do the steps carefully, it takes no notice at all!
I've just spent half an hour on the phone to JLR, who deny that there is any such thing as service mode, and I should just go ahead and change the brakes!
These where what I found online in a workshop manual: stage 1- 70nM then stage 2- 120 degrees. For the front caliper slide pins 58nM For the rear caliper slide pins 28nM Hope that helps Jason
Only if you’ve changed the brake fluid or messed around with the brake lines/hoses. Standard disc and pad replacement no you don’t need to bleed anything

Which brake light do you men bud? Have you got brake pad wear infection on the dash? If so you will need to replace the pad wear sensors when you change the brake pads too
Hey mate I know you did this a while ago now but can you tell me are the sensor cables on each wheel or only one at the front and one at the back ? Cheers
If u forgot to put it on service mode and u already replaced the brake pads. but it still says replace pads. how do u remove it from your screen from saying replace brakepads?
Of you have the message saying you need to replace brake pads then that is the sensor that slots inside the pad. Did you replace the sensors? If not that’s the issue 😊 hope that helps
If you had the replace brake pad warning on your dash that means the wear indicator sensor has been worn which then throws the light on the dash. If this happens you need to replace the wear indicators so the light goes out
@@TrackAndBeyond Hey man, I want to say thank you very much for the how-to video. I was able to get the front and rear brakes done on my XF in about 2-3 hours. I had a few minor setbacks. Haha! But I got it all done!
Personally I would normally put copper grease on but because I had painted the callipers I didn’t. No noises as of yet though so all good think I got the carrier pretty clean!
@@TrackAndBeyond Thank you for answer. I'm asking because never change on automatic car, so don't know what is the best practice, change many times on manual and usually when change on front, car in 1st gear with hand brake on. My car is XE 2016 2.0l diesel 180hp RWD. Nice video
I changed the rear pads with EBC redstuff, I also used the caliper lubricant but they make noise while I do not brake, as soon as I touch the brakes the noise stop. do you have some advice? Thank you
Sounds as though they may have a sharpe edge on that pad or are ever so slightly loose in the pad carrier. Maybe take the pads out and clean the wedges of the friction material up and see if that helps
@@TrackAndBeyond ahhhh ok.....mine doesn’t have the larger pro screen, which I was it did 😢 Had it a year now and only found out 2 days ago that the mirrors ARE power fold mirrors after slating them for not being power fold mirrors 🤫
Yea sadly wish I had the pro screen too. Oh nice! My jag is weird as it has a load of random options like I have the power boot that opens and closes itself but don’t have power cold mirrors 🤣🤷🏼♂️

That is correct rears only 😊
dont forget the wear indicator and nitrile gloves would be handy .cheers

Hi, do you have torque settings for the bolts. There is info online but without having a manual I'm just making sure. Great video!
Been a while but I believe this is what I used:
Caliper Bolts - Specification: 115 Nm

Really could do with a crib sheet for putting the car into maintenance mode as the method described didn't work for me. Also the calliper pistons have presented issues. Further research suggests the use of a piston wind-in tool. I would like some clarity from the author as with hindsight I wouldn't aptempt this job on the basis of the video.

dont you need to bleed the breaks?
Only if you’ve changed the brake fluid or messed around with the brake lines/hoses. Standard disc and pad replacement no you don’t need to bleed anything

how would a jaguar xf r-sport 2018 be put into service mode? in mine, doing that, it doesn't work

Hold EPB switch in "off" position for two seconds, then, keeping it pressed, floor the accelerator for two seconds.

So no part to take the vehicle out of maintenance mode?
Parking brake maintenance mode removal: 9:19
If there is one what is the torque setting of the 2 caliper and 2 carrier bolts?
Here was the information I used:
For front and rear Caliper Carrier Bolts (which must be renewed) stage 1- 70nM then stage 2- 120 degrees.
For the front caliper slide pins 58nM
For the rear caliper slide pins 28nM
Hope this helps 😄
Nice vid. how do you reset the brake light?
Which brake light do you men bud? Have you got brake pad wear infection on the dash? If so you will need to replace the pad wear sensors when you change the brake pads too

Here is the front pad wear indicator sensor. Hope this helps
Jason
Hey mate I know you did this a while ago now but can you tell me are the sensor cables on each wheel or only one at the front and one at the back ? Cheers
Only on 1 wheel on each front and back I believe pal 😃
@@TrackAndBeyond cheers mate
If u forgot to put it on service mode and u already replaced the brake pads. but it still says replace pads. how do u remove it from your screen from saying replace brakepads?
Of you have the message saying you need to replace brake pads then that is the sensor that slots inside the pad. Did you replace the sensors? If not that’s the issue 😊 hope that helps
@@TrackAndBeyond Why do i have to replace the
sensors?
If you had the replace brake pad warning on your dash that means the wear indicator sensor has been worn which then throws the light on the dash. If this happens you need to replace the wear indicators so the light goes out
Hi is it the same procedure on a 2014 xf?
I’m not 100% sure to be totally honest, a viewer previously has said it was the same but I can’t confirm sadly
Jason
What about the required piston rewind tool ?.Pistons do not just push back.
Yea pistons on the back of these jags don’t wind back they just push back ✌🏻
Hello from America! Can the same procedure be done on the XF? I have a 2017 Jaguar XF 20d AWD.
Good morning USA! 😀 I think if I remember correctly it’s pretty much the same system so should be relatively the same job to do.
Jason
@@TrackAndBeyond Hey man, I want to say thank you very much for the how-to video. I was able to get the front and rear brakes done on my XF in about 2-3 hours.
I had a few minor setbacks. Haha! But I got it all done!
@@superhappycat glad to hear it! 😀
@@richardbyrnes8398 no worries bud 😃
Did you not need any copper grease on it?
Personally I would normally put copper grease on but because I had painted the callipers I didn’t. No noises as of yet though so all good think I got the carrier pretty clean!
When you change on front, gearbox in what position must be? Parking or neutral?
My car is RWD. But I left it in Neutral to do the whole job whilst jacked up etc
Jason
@@TrackAndBeyond Thank you for answer. I'm asking because never change on automatic car, so don't know what is the best practice, change many times on manual and usually when change on front, car in 1st gear with hand brake on. My car is XE 2016 2.0l diesel 180hp RWD. Nice video
@@cacamaca1365 thanks for the kind words hope it goes well 👍🏻
I changed the rear pads with EBC redstuff, I also used the caliper lubricant but they make noise while I do not brake, as soon as I touch the brakes the noise stop.
do you have some advice?
Thank you
Sounds as though they may have a sharpe edge on that pad or are ever so slightly loose in the pad carrier. Maybe take the pads out and clean the wedges of the friction material up and see if that helps
What a lot of rust, all down to road salt damage, what a pity.....
Yep so infuriating!
Your centre binnacle display looks so different to mine 🤔
Sadly mine is a pre facelift so not quite as nice as the newer dash
@@TrackAndBeyond mines a pre-facelift too, mine was registered in 2017 🤔
Yea I think the dash as upgraded around that time to be fair they had better dash and the option of the larger pro screen around 2017 I think
@@TrackAndBeyond ahhhh ok.....mine doesn’t have the larger pro screen, which I was it did 😢 Had it a year now and only found out 2 days ago that the mirrors ARE power fold mirrors after slating them for not being power fold mirrors 🤫
Yea sadly wish I had the pro screen too. Oh nice! My jag is weird as it has a load of random options like I have the power boot that opens and closes itself but don’t have power cold mirrors 🤣🤷🏼♂️
Good video but could not finish. Too much wind.
I know sorry about that every mic I have/had packed up that day so just tried to crack on as needed to do it
Give the car a clean before the next one lol!!!
🤣 yea defo needs a clean!
