How to change rear brake discs and brake pads VW GOLF 5 TUTORIAL | AUTODOC

[@Fekillix]

I DID IT! The caliper carrier was impossible to remove. Luckily you can wiggle out the disc without taking it off. If you live in a rust prone place you may also want to replace the heat shield (mine was rusted completely). Nice tutorial.

[@tropicalhousechannel4697]

Fekillix you can? Mines stuck as fuck I’ll try taking out the disc without the removing the carrier but it looked impossible

[@SamualRobotham-IWasOnlyKidding]

@@tropicalhousechannel4697 You can but with larger rotors it may not be possible. I could.

[@davidrichards7722]

Thank you for this , Had to do my daughters VW. Was unable to undo caliper retaining bolt, but managed to do as D Whitaker said jiggled the disc to pull it off. Thank you again for a well presented video.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We are glad you find our video interesting and informative. Stay tuned. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@emirkadralija4329]

No need to take the calliper carrier off (1.9 TDI 255mm discs) the disc will just wiggle out and back on. Pretty easy job!

[@autodocuk]

You are absolutely right, we have already fixed these mistakes in the new videos. AUTODOC

[@TheTaskurapu]

Great and informative video, thanks a lot but I have one question: At 7:06 is the mechanic applying Liqui Moly threadlock?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We hope that our tutorial was helpful for you. Stay tuned and follow our latest updates. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@supervisorhere]

I read some forums, and some people found those screws very hard to be opened. Even, recommend to change for a new ones after change of rotors. Is it recommended to put some threadlock or some coppergrease (then easier to remove next time)?

[@0ptixPrime]

probably to prevent any chance of the screw from unfastening from continual movement.

[@Bagarn15]

I have a question. I tried to unscrew one of the bolts to the gliding pin it was already rounded. What is a good way to remove it ? I dont have a Induction heater can i. Use a burner on the bolt or is the rubber to the pins melt?

[@autodocuk]

We cannot tell for sure and we recommend that you consult your mechanic.

I found there is NO NEED TO REMOVE TH CALIPER RETAINING BOLT WITH M14 12 spline bolts. Undo the disc retaining screw and the disc pulls off with a little giggling.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback!This video is considered to be an informative one, and it is approximate. We appreciate you sharing your experience with us. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@bcol127]

Depends on your engine. Some have larger brackets.

Would a 56 plate seat leon require it?

2:53, what size bit is that ?

[@christopherjohnsen2594]

14

[@Xnomed]

M14 TRX?

[@chuckeastwood1]

is it okay to use the wind back tool without opening the bleed screw ?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! This video is considered to be an informative one, and it shows the sequence of repairs, so some stages of the repairs might have been excluded. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@juandef4115]

Yes, you're actually better off undoing the cap in the resvoir. Also best to clean the caliper piston before winding it back

[@64airbus]

stiffer squeeze backwards😊

[@usmanrabbani2062]

You can remove the disc without removing the carrier. Helps if you don’t have the spline tooth tool. My caloper does not whinned back, tried so many times, any suggestions please help Doc?? Otherwise I’m thinking to replace the caliper which would be costly.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment! It is difficult to say something without proper diagnosis, we recommend contacting the service of your car. Best Regards, Autodoc team

[@patrickmaher6874]

Can anyone help does anyone know the size of the torx bit for the rear caliper holder on a mk5 golf please.

[@kkxxy8391]

I think it is 14 mm. However, in another video, this was a triple square bit. Can anyone clarify which one is correct?

[@patrickmaher6874]

Thanks very much.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your request. To answer your question we need more data about your car. Please contact our Customer Support team and we will try to help you. Best Regards, Autodoc team.

[@patrickmaher6874]

The car is a 2007 MK5 VW GOLF 1600 FSI,Thankyou.

[@ThePoshPleb]

Couldn't see what he did with the screwdriver after winding the piston back at 9:20, also it'd be useful if you showed more clearly the spanner, torq and spline sizes. Apart from that, 👍

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback. When squeezing the brake piston there is a chance that the cuff may come off, after which it must be returned to its place. This is exactly what our mechanic did in this fragment.

[@timurh9051]

thanks for video. I folowed same way but my caliper was frozen I couldn't push it back. Is there any solution for that?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We recommend you to visit a specialized car service center. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@SamualRobotham-IWasOnlyKidding]

@@autodocuk You need to “screw” it back in. Use a calliper tool for the job.

[@iainhughes6637]

Good video but it always amazes me why company's don't steam clean the area first to make the work cleaner and better for working around.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! Your suggestion is absolutely reasonable, however any mess can also be considered as a creative clutter. Best regards, Autodoc!

[@bhsmusic7487]

Not torquing the bolts in at the end? That's a paddlin'.

[@rootsdat]

Believe me those caliper bracket bolts are not that easy to remove :) good luck

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! We hope that our tutorial was helpful for you. Stay tuned and follow our latest updates. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@juandef4115]

Agreed. The bolts had already beem cracked. Even the retaining screw can be a pain in the ass

[@chrisenright7003]

I like to replace the carrier bolts with hex head bolts in 10.9 grade. Undoing them with a spanner is so much easier than the OEM spline head ones.

[@SamualRobotham-IWasOnlyKidding]

You may not need to remove the carrier. The disc will come off with the carrier in place on some models.

[@denisbakiu9391]

aj mne vymenis ?

[@falconlips5474]

Unfortunately for me I have 282mm discs and can't wiggle them out. Don't have m14 bits so feck it, old discs it is

[@autodocuk]

This information is individual for each car. Replacement should be carried out strictly according to the manufacturer’s recommendations according to the service book of your car.

[@elliotmccluskey]

Chris?

[@patrickryan7385]

Never cleaned protective oil off new disc or put copper grease on back of new pads
