In this video I begin the replacement of the rear brake pads and discs, due to a low speed pulsating/judder through brake pedal.
Unfortunately I also discover a seized caliper piston on the O/S/R, which could not be retracted, meaning this repair has to be placed on hold, pending a replacement caliper.
Part 2 to follow...

Didn't know about the "wind-in" type of caliper piston! Learned something there, thanks.

Great guide but always worth leaving time or a few days in case problems arise. Will you replace both callipers or just the seized one?

@@brianmoore47 Thank you! That’s quite a way from me as I’m in the Southeast, in case my accent didn’t give it away 🤣 Unfortunately I don’t know anyone in that region. I know a lot of technicians, mainly ex colleagues but all around here.

What purpose does the plate on the wind back tool serve?

@autoknight747 3 месяца назад

It counters the force against the piston.

Hello Auto Knight, Thank you for the video. I have Audi A3 2010 1.6 petrol. Do you think my rear break disc should go easy as your one..? Need to try!!

@autoknight747 6 месяцев назад

Always best to allow plenty of time and not rush. Depending on the history of the car, how it has been treated and the region the car is from, some things can be seized and may require a bit more effort. Caliper pistons sometimes seize too, requiring caliper replacement. Good luck with it!
