I appreciate the video pacing and clarity. Thank you. A few things I would recommend are to put very light anti-seize on the disc retaining bolt and the big 17mm bolts. Never C-clamp the piston back in with force on only one side as it can get cockeyed and damage the piston. Apply force in the middle of the piston simply by using a piece of wood or such to spread the forces and allow the piston to go in square. The sliders should also be removed and cleaned and greased every time. False economy to reassemble and hope for the best.

Nice video...little tip: when u put back piston, open liquid brake tray... And torque specs are 35 Nm for hexagon bolt and 200 Nm for ribbed collar bolt.

By ribbed collar bolt which one do you mean? The one which holds the carrier to the wheel hub? Also: what's the torque spec for the T30?

@@Ghostlight89 yes..disc carrier to wheel hub...torque is 200 NM. Use new bolt..

The inner nut on the calliper retaining bolts/sliding pin was 17mm on the Mk 7 Golf R I did recently. I ground down an old spanner so it was narrow enough to fit without damaging the rubber gaiter.

Nice video, thanks. I don't know if I could have gotten those 21mm carrier bolts off without an air impact wrench though. They were tough!

For those without an impact wrench a breaker bar will work.

Note that a normal 17mm spanner is too wide to fit on the retaining bolts

Will just replacing the brake pads with new ones get rid of the check brake pads warning light? Or do you need to connect a diagnosis machine to remove the warning light?

There is no need to bleed the brakes. The pumping of the pedal is just to get the piston back in to place up against the pads.

I heard that you have to put it in service mode before you changing the brakes due the electronic parking brake is that true?

Parking brake only act on the rear wheels, so not a concern with front brakes.

Yes, Loctite can be used for an extra layer of security.

the 17mm wrench needs to be thinner than a standard wrench
