03:57 - Yes, really use a socket №17, 18 mm might spoil your bolts. And these bolts are kept tight... What is B5+ I don't know. Our Variant 1998 I think must be B5, has no caliper springs and needs no end bit №7 but a 13 mm socket.

I like how y’all just get right into it not talk for an hour and a half

[@anthonymcgrath1948]

Thanks so much for making these tutorials, so far I've replaced front and back discs and pads, track rod ends, front stabiliser links and rear bump stops, and the car sailed through the MoT, cheers, and keep up the good work.

It's wonderful when the mechanic gets right down to business. No talking, no introductory graphics and loud rap music.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for sharing your opinion! AUTODOC

[@jimmurphy5739]

Good vid. Thx! I get to do this today, less the hoist and nice lighting. But as a consolation, and I know I risk making many of your followers jealous in the extreme, I get to do this in the snow at minus 8°C! Ha! And you thought Canada was just warm dry fields of wheat blowing in the summer sun and vast virgin forests filled with poplar-nibbling beavers! Ha! Gotta run now and shovel the car out so I can get to the wheels. (All kidding aside, Thanks again!)

Huge help! The only tip I have for other performing this job is that a 7mm hex key (Allen Key) is the same as the No7 used in this video.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment! This information will be very useful for our viewers. Best Regards, Autodoc Team

[@jjon95]

@@autodocuk No problem, keep up that great VW/Audi B5+ tutorials!

[@raoulduke7553]

Does he mean 7mm Allen key when he says “end bit #7” ?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! Correct, a 7mm hex head is need for caliper guide pids. Best regards, Autodoc!

Why make extra work by splitting the pad carrier from the caliper. Just remove the two caliper bolts and remove the caliper as a whole. Pads still come out just as easy

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! Unfortunately, each car requires particular replacement and everything depends on a technical condition of car parts units. Our videos are informative as to the replacement sequence, and it's always up to you how to replace a car part. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@Jorge-vr4wj]

Do I have pop the good open and take the cap off of the brake fluid container that's underneath the hood? It didn't see him doing that in the video. On American cars, I have had to do that in the past. Idk if it's different for German vehicles. Thank you!

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for the feedback! Most modern cars are equipped with a valve in the reservoir of the brake fluid reservoir, however, we do not recommend you to replace the brake system yourself, because your safety depends on it, you should contact a certified service station.Best regards, Autodoc.

When you say “Use number 7 End Bit,” does that mean a 7mm bit?

[@autodocuk]

Yes, No. 7 corresponds to 7 mm.

I need to get the male connector part of the brake pad wear sensors for an 03 vw passat fwd v6 model! Pls haaaallllppp!!

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback ! Everything depends on brake system design of your car. If your car uses such part, then to replace this unit, you need to disconnect the electrical connector. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@n9wox]

My 2000 Passat came with wear sensors, and I don't use them anymore. I think I had to connect the two wear sensor wires together to keep the sensor from turning on the dash.

[@casaborg]

Why you dont lube the caliper pins, It is not necesary on german cars? Thanks

I have this car and pad carrier bracket bolt is NOT 17mm....it should actually be 18mm

[@moonsun1108]

It is 18mm in this video.

[@nekokyuketsuki3778]

does the brake lines still need to be bled?

[@autodocuk]

During the brake system maintenance, in some cases the technology involves bleeding, but we strongly recommend to do this in a specialized car service center. Best regards, Autodoc.

[@ArtoKV]

Not if you don't for example change the hose too.

[@EvoLAtiR]

This tutorial didn't show the importance to clean the new disks with brake cleaner, the importance to lubricate the guide pins, the importance to use threadlocker on the bolts and the correct torque to tighten up. In my opinion this tutorial is very incomplete.

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your feedback! Some moments of the replacement procedure have been skipped in order to make the tutorial easier to watch for our viewers. We appreciate your remarks and we will most certainly pay attention to them in the days ahead. Best regards, Autodoc!

Why in the fuck does the brake pad need a sensor?

[@autodocuk]

Thank you for your comment. For pads, a wear sensor is used, which signals the replacement of pads when they are worn. Best Regards, Autodoc team.
