Pad/Disc replacing Front & Rear

[ian.f]

Hi Forum,

Getting to the point where my brakes need attention, and like many other times I feel the itch to do this myself!
I’ve found lots of guides/vids on how to to B7/B8, but nothing for B9.
Has anyone done theirs?
I’m confident enough that I know the process for the fronts, but the parking brake gives me questions for the rears.
Any guidance appreciated.
Or should I get a garage to do it?!
Thanks!

Had my local tyre shop do a full Brembo replacements for my fronts for £230. Rears would be a bit less. Took them just over an hour. Why do it yourself?

Done mine front and rear and if you've done them previously on a B8 or 8.5 you'll have no issues. You will however need some software for the electronic hand brake. I used Carista

Thanks for this.
I’ve not done an Audi before, but plenty of others.
I have Carista, and I know that the elect brake needs retracting. Does the app have an option for this then?

Thanks. I’ll have a look when I get a chance (motor is in the garage having the ABS pump sorted ).

Search 'Stevens Track days' on youtube and look at his other videos. There is a very good guide.
