How to fit front brake pads on a landrover discovery

switch on ignition, pull parking brake button upwards for approx 10 seconds...if it does not reset, you will have to have mount positions recalibrated with LR computer

check rear brake shoes or pads

towbar on a disco 2 is a straight forward bolt on job it attaches to the rear chassis and crossmember any good quality towbar kit will come with all bolts and washers you need plus instructions . if you get genuine landrover electrics they plug straight in without having to cut or join any wires.

hope this helps

I would check to see if your brake lights work, if they don't then replace the brake light switch. It also releases the vehicles neutral safety switch. Hope this helps out.

Best of luck

Hi,

Can you confirm what brand the stereo is? If it is the Visteon brand that Landrover fit then I can help. Just let me know.

Thanks.

I know this website
www.reliable-store.com that i get manuals from, and they have all models online.

I also brought for my 1989 BMW, such old model, they had it and it was very good manual. Go ahead, I bet.

Remove the road wheels, clean the exterior of the calipers. Remove the split pin from the retaining pins on either side and then remove the pad retaining pins and anti rattle springs. Remove the brake pads and clean exposed parts of pistons using new brake fluid. Wipe away excess with a lint free cloth. Using a piston clamp, press each piston back into its bore ensuring that the displaced brake fluid does not overflow from reservoir.
Refit the new brake pads, retaining pins and anti-rattle springs, using new split pins to secure them. Apply the service brake pedal several time to locate pads. Check fluid reservoir and top up if necessary using correct grade of fluid.

if it is a mems unit , it will need to be programed to the key fob and alarm . (there is no way round it).

Here you go...

Just had this same issue with my 57 plate Discovery SE - great guy from the AA took the small plate off that sits immediately to the rear of the hanbrake button in the central console - he then hooked a wire around the cable you see in there and gave it a mighty tug. The result is that my brake is now disengaged (rather than stuck-on as before) and LR will need to cure the source of the problem under warranty. Car is automatic so can use "park" until full repair.
