BMW F15 X5 & F16 X6 Brake Service & Bleed Procedure

►Servicing the brake system on your BMW X5 or X6 is an essential part of keeping it on the road. If you're hearing any squeaking while driving, feeling any vibrations while braking, or can visibly see that your pads are low, it's time to service those brakes.

In this video, Gareth Foley takes you through the steps required to replace the brakes on both the front and the rear of your F15 chassis BMW X5. This is a fairly straight forward job not requiring many specialty tools and actually carries the same sizes over from the front to the rear.

In addition to showing you how to replace the brakes, Gareth covers the bleeding procedure once you are finished with the job as well as resetting those pesky service lights.
