Need advice with Mach-E brake service

[37Beloved]

I picked up a new one and I'm getting ready to swap winter tires on. Since I live where they use a ton of salt, I like to service my brakes twice a year. I've seen the post about brake service mode, but I'm wondering if anyone has any tips or resources for actually servicing the brakes themselves. Torque specs, anything! I'm not afraid to get my hands dirty, but I want to make sure I do it right.

Just a quick heads-up! For your Mach-E brakejob, you’ll definitely want to have access to FDRS. These brakes are packed with tech - computer modules and sensors everywhere! Seriously, it’s a good idea to hit up your local Ford dealership, chat with a service advisor, and if you can, pick the brain of their EV tech. They could save you from some serious hassle. Good luck, and may the brake gods be with you!

Just a tip. Look for a dealer who has a friendly and skilled EV Service Representative.

I learned from a mechanic buddy that even a quick spring clean can make a big difference. For your CR-V Hybrid, you will need to use the brake service mode to retract the electronic parking brake. As for torque specs, the caliper bolts should be around 80 ft-lbs, but double-check your manual. Clean off the salt and debris, and you will be good to go!
