In this video, I am changing the rear brakes: pads, rotors, and I’m also upgrading to stainless steel brake hoses. I decided to go with Ferodo pads, Zimmerman rotors, and StopTech brake hoses. I’ll also show you how I decided to deal with installing brake pads that do not have the wear sensor that would plug into the harness on the passenger side.

Thank you for this video. I’ve only seen videos of people removing the the whole calliper and that just make the whole job harder so thank you again for explaining everything to the T.

great video! The rear rotors on my '18 mk7.5R started getting deep grooves around 12k and I ended up replacing at 15k miles when they were grinding. It was really surprising that the dealer thought it was normal. Replaced with Stoptech rotors and EBC red pads. I'll have to look into using the OBDeleven to enable the disc drying function, but the replacements have been spotless for the last 25k miles.

Hey just wanted to verify the rear brake pads listed in the description show up as may not fit my 2019 7.5 golf r. On the website it says up to 2018 mk7 r

They are the right ones. You can search the OE part number to verify. I just think the didn’t update the page to add newer vehicles past 2018

What model of obdeleven did you use?

I don't understand the need for OBDeleven, does the electronic parking brake just need to be in the off position or is that moving it farther back than normal? Thank you.

@EVERYTHINGcpo 2 жыл бұрын

It opens it completely.... so farther back than just the parking brake "off".

Did the exact method twice until I had new fluid come through and now my pedal is still spongey. I can’t find any leaks also. Anybody have this problem?

To preven loosing brake fluid, use a brake pedal depresser while changing the lines

Swap the lines first so you have a chance to clean everything before asembly. You didn't clean the hub beofre new disc install.

Excellent video. One comment, you don't require a special tool (like with a MK5) to compress the piston back-in, even a normal C-clamp would do. The reason is simple: the special tool is only required when there's a pure mechanical handbrake function (which auto-levels to compensate for wear). In this case, the parking break is performed mechanically by the electro-engine, which you had already re-wounded with VAG-COM. Long story short: just push back the piston, no rotating! If you look into the VW Factory repair document, it will telle you the same thing. Oh yeah, no need to remove the calliper carrier, just slide the disk out..

Just did my Mk7 Golf R, can confirm, no need to remove the calliper carrier, just slide the disk out and the new one slides back in.

Wish I'd known you didn't need to remove the caliper carrier before my last brake job, would have saved me a lot of time! The same isn't true of the front brakes, is it?

@GTI_CHHA Жыл бұрын

@@kalvnhobbz Indeed, for the fronts you do need to remove the carrier to remove the disk.

Holly Molly u removed the carriers for nothing to replace the rear discs. That's not necessary at all. They come out sliding past them.
