Hows does it look on an Mk4 Mondy? We need new rear pads on our one and we don't know if it has EPB or a normal brake. It has a normal handbrake lever, and the calipers look pretty normal, but the car does have hill launch assist. Anything newer than a Sierra and I'm lost

epb has a button that is pressed to operate the handbrake.if you have a regular lever then your car doesnt have electronic parking brake

but it has the hill thing, which may need resetting at the local ford stealer

im sure hill launch assist is done by engine braking and through abs not parking brake

If it's electronic and anything like the Renaults you have to get the dealer to electronically wind back the brake caliper. I couldn't believe it when I was told!

our transits have it as well, but not sure how they work, but apparently yes it's a main stealer job to change the pads

yeah volvos are like that esp v70 with epb.you have to put it in service mode so the calipers can be wound back

The hla is operated thru the abs system, all transit pads can be done by any garage no more to them than a standard handbrake caliper. You will need a brake piston wind back tool to do the mondeo brakes.

Pads are just normal to change,the only problem you may encounter are seized calipers
