    Hi
    Checkout the previous posts on putting the rear brakes into service mode, lots of useful comments
    Just type "service mode" into the search page
    I had trouble getting the car into service mode following the advice there until I didn't hold the accelerator pedal fully down but just short before the kickdown position.
    Hope this helps

    Hi again
    from my earlier post regarding brake pads changes


    Hi
    There appears to be a variety of types and sizes of brake pads to fit the various sizes of discs and manufacturer (Brembo, TRW etc.) I found it easier to measure the size of the brake disc (lots of various sizes, front and back can differ) and check on the Advanced Factors website (they have parts diagrams for the various sizes of brake discs with part numbers).
    My 2019 has 363 dia Brembo at the front and 350 dia TRW on the rear
    Hope this helps


    Regards

    Thanks for ur info, does the service mode work with you MY21 onwards with the button as a brake instead of lever/switch?

    Not sure, mine is MY2019, but I can only suggest you try it, If it works fine if not plan B, not sure what that will be though, hopefully other members with MY21 onwards will advise
    Regards
