Hi, I'm about to renew my 2008 tdv8 l322 rear discs and pads having done the fronts this week.
I'm confused about the epb complication though.
I was going to simply back off the toothed adjuster wheel inside the disc/ drum to give shoe clearance, slide off the disc and replace the shoes IF need be and the discs and pads.
Should I leave the handbrake in the OFF position throughout? Should I disconnect the battery or correct handbrake fuse?
Does diagnostics have to be involved at any point to set shoes up before or after fitting? I know about the bedding in procedure faff. Thanks wise folks in advance!  2008 L322 Vogue 3.6 TDV8 in Java Black with parchment and Navy interior. 125000mls.

I used to be indecisive and have a split personality... but we are ok now...I think?

Not 100% sure but handbrake off wind back the adjuster remove and replace shoes with new retainers new discs wind up adjuster to lock the brakes on I think something like 40 nm of resistance then back off 8 clicks equalise the the shoes by releasing the Alan bolt opposite the brake adjuster re tighten to I think 6 nm then follow the bedding in process
It's in the wiki I think
From experience make sure all retainers clips etc are correct and secure other wise it's an unjam procedure either thro idd tool or manually which is a right pita ( from my disco days )

Do not work on the rear brakes (EPB) without disabling the EPB !

EPB Off, pull the fuse. .

When I did mine, I’d read somewhere to leave the gearbox in N, EPB off and open the driver’s door; all of which allegedly prevents the EPB from automatically activating.

I followed the above without any problems and the disc changes went very smoothly. Si. <This is my name.

From the workshop manual:

Quote:

Using the Land Rover approved diagnostic system, drive
the parking brake to the mounting position.

Disconnect the battery ground cable.
