@@DriftKr6l ok thanks 🙏

Thank you sir

You need to disengage the parking brake

Thank you

Glad it helped. Cheers

Just put it back on ,and then engage parking brake normally from inside the car and it will unwind and set

Thx man. Oh, I took it off to show how its done in case someone wants to also remove the rotor to replace it or cut it.

Not in the rear

@@DriftKr6l OK first of all? THANK YOU FOR THIS VIDEO!!. I bought a bidirectional scanner tool to do it but thought the mechanical version you proposed would be easier & it was. Paid a shoppe I know & trust over $300 to do my wife’s rear brakes a year or so ago & they couldn’t reset the parking brake fault so I had to take it to the dealer & pay another $165 for them to do it. In my 60’s? I just got done doing my wife’s 2017 Porsche Macan turbo. I did not have to take off the brake pad holding carrier plate on the rear: I simply leveraged the brake pads out & put everything else back in. I also uninstalled the parking brake actuator solenoid & did the T45 in the back clockwise to collapse the ratcheted mechanism. Then? I simply used a big screwdriver old-school style to collapse the caliper pistons before taking the brake pads out. Oh & that Porsche backing plate on the front of the caliper? just pops out. The back of the parking brake once you take the actuator solenoid off? It’s not a T40 by the way (it’s a T45).

The dust cover pops off so you can use the cylinder compressor tool. It is held in with rolled springs just pull straight out. Maybe wiggle with a flat head

Big difference, great upgrade

@@DriftKr6l glad to hear it. Swapped out suspension as well. New rack going in Wednesday, ripping the old one out tomorrow.

Hi, correct, oring on the actuator. THX for the kind words

Still good. No issues

Hey bud the bike was bought used so it was well worn in, in fact the rear tire was so badly worn that I decided it needed an immediate change and because of that I figured a stylish farewell we as in order 😁

Right on, it was it's funeral

But if you can't figure out how to take bolts off and put them back in, should you really be working on a Porsche?

Greg Dorman was the co-driver and I was the driver

Nope. All perfect as before.

I added the link to the ones I used. I am not certain they will fit a 16, but if I had to guess I would say yes as there are not a lot of changes between 16 an 17

Glad it help

Resistor was not required

Nope. The procedure I outline does not need it.

+1 And perfect opportunity to clean the calipers. Great job but gave me anxiety 😂 At least spray them down with brake cleaner and remember brake grease 😁

I was thinking the same thing, crappy job.

From what I remember it was only like $500-600 and its a genuine Subaru OEM part

DriftKr6l good enough reasons for me, thank you!

Nothing special, once you pull the ebrake it will wind the correct amount in, then out once you release the brake.

yes, that step is unnecessary, it's very difficult to remove and torque back to spec. You don't need to uninstall the bracket at all to either change the pad or replace the rotor, basically these brackets never needs to come off.

@@JasonNotSleepy I did the rear brake job yesterday and I watched this video prior to doing so. When I first read your comment I thought you were trolling but I can now confirm your statement that you do not need to remove that bracket to replace the pads and rotor for anyone else reading this.
