if you want change the rear pads your self you can use a couple options.

1 take the motor of the back the calpier and wind it back that way make sure you have the brakes in the off first.

2 get a computer from ebay or amazone or outher online retailer that would allow you to wind the rear brakes right off.

3 buy your self a vida set up. then you can get your vida to do it. or use softwear called d5t5 with i think wind the pads off as well
Many thanks, that's very helpful. I'll have a look at the diy options. I assume £240 is the standard 1 hour plus parts main dealer rate.
