    Rear disks and pads. Vehicles with electronic handbrake

    Hi,

    Just done this on my V70 2.0D.

    DO NOT listen to any posts telling you to buy a tool to plug in your car to rewind the pads electronically.

    It can be done very easily without buying such an item and save you around £100. Don't be fooled by the dealer only job either.

    I actually used a 12 volt battery and hot wired the motor part to rewind it. However I found the piston was actual still stuck in the original place so I used to usual wind back tool.

    It can be done easily without using a battery as well.

    This is the guide I found hidden among lots of threads saying buy/need special tool.
