    Parking brake issues after rear pad change

    I recently changed my rear pads about 2-3 weeks ago, used VCDS etc and all seemed to go smoothly at the time. Now though it seems that the drivers side caliper piston doesn’t seem to be totally disengaging and this is causing major friction and heat on the disc. I can pull away etc, but after...

    RS3 8v Reyland brake discs - bolted or floating?

    I know there's numerous threads on brake discs but I can't find any answers. If anyone can help I wanted to know if there'd be any major performance differences between Reyland bolted discs and floating discs, when they're only going to be for road use? Also if there'd be much difference between...

    Hello all, I replaced my brake discs and pads recently and something strange is happening. I bought Brembo extra drilled (rear) and dimpled (front) discs, and Zimmermann pads for both ends. I did a really thorough job, cleaned and inspected everything, degreased with brake cleaner multiple...

    S3 8V PFL Brake pad wrong size?

    Car failed MOT on pads, Should I change the stock disks at the same time?

    So cars failed on pads at the front, taken it away so I can order some HP2000 or DS2500, stock disks have some life in them still. Is it worth changing them for some grooved disks at the same time or will it not make much of a difference in regards to stopping? Should I just put some HP2000...
