►The rear brakes on your VW Mk7 Golf R may be smaller than the fronts, but they're no less important. Ensuring your pads and rotors are healthy is a very important part of ownership. If your brake pads or rotors are visually worn past their usable life, or if you're experiencing brake squeals or the rear of your car shuddering under braking, it's time to replace these components.
Replacement of the Golf R brakes couldn't be more straightforward and is a job that nearly anyone can tackle in their garage or driveway at home. It requires minimal special tools, all of which are outlined in the intro of this video.
Follow along as Mike Hidalgo, FCP Euro's Professional DIY'er, walks us through the step-by-step process to replace the rear brake pads and rotors on a Mk7 Volkswagen Golf R.

@dw1508 Год назад

Fantastic video, quality camera angles and instructions perfect. Im about to get mine done and ur info helps heaps

@clearkill1337 Год назад

So no need to replace the rear carrier bolts since we can slide the rotors around them. Pretty slick! Thanks for the video.

@mamega99 7 месяцев назад

Absolutely useful video. Thank you so much for it, I changed brake pads without effort✌🏼✌🏼

@bonkerscat1074 10 месяцев назад

Thank you for this Video. Very informative & clear. Thank you 🤙🏻

@dw1508 Год назад

Thanks for the video very well explained , it helped me do my brakes much faster so good ATE designed this rotor to be removed without removing the caliper bracket.

@peterpabian 2 месяца назад

How do you know when you dont have to use the special tool that twists the piston in? Is that only on cars with the electronic parking brake?

@diomedia1 Год назад

Thank you for this tutorial! It was very helpful. (It came out three days after I ordered new rear carrier bolts from FCP - whoops) One important thing this video didn't mention - some rear pads will need to reuse that metal shim on the outside pads. The TEXTAR pads needed this shim since there was way too much play.

@Solidityv2 Год назад

Thank you very much for this tutorial. I've successfully done the rotors and pads on my MK7.5R, incase anyone is interested, I went with the "cheaper route"- I purchased a ELM327 OBD2 Scanner and used an app called Carista to open my Electronic Parking Brakes.

@KaputtEqu1pment Год назад

@@fcpeuro Silly question, but would this step be needed if the vehicle is a manual? I'm assuming no?

@MrMrAzad 11 месяцев назад

yes as long as u have electric park brake, doesnt matter if its automatic or manual@@KaputtEqu1pment

@HoBBLeCooKiE 3 месяца назад

@@KaputtEqu1pment not needed. You are right. Just did mine.

@YCymro69 Год назад

A nice, well-presented, very helpful instruction video - thanks. Of interest, after reinstalling everything do you use the diagnostic software to end the procedure first and then pump brake pedal pressure, or pump the brakes and then end the procedure? Or doesn’t it matter either way😅

@fcpeuro Год назад

Thank you for watching! We end the parking brake procedure, then pump the pedal a few times before taking it out for a test drive.

@heinrichpelser 11 месяцев назад

You can use the obdeleven to enter service position. I have it so that’s a bonus

@fcpeuro 11 месяцев назад

Great note!

@reinulf656 Год назад

Can you reuse the silver plate in front of the outer pad as it was originally? Does it fit with these aftermarket pads?

@bretthall5770 Год назад

Do you close the electronic parking brake first and then pump the brake peddle or doesn’t it matter? Thanks

@lmd6204 4 месяца назад

Does this apply to a 2017 VW Alltrack with manual transmission with hill descent control??? Thanks!!

@brianmaclachlan1699 Год назад

7:49 what liquids did you use to clean up the calipers and carrier?

@xoticcounter6669 Месяц назад

I have a MK7 Sporstvan. Do I have to remove the carrier or can I also slide the rotors around? Thanks!

@jc2578 7 месяцев назад

thank you so much for sharing this video. - will this be same for VW GTI 2018 model?

@fcpeuro 7 месяцев назад

Thank you for watching! The same general process will apply to your GTI!

@rudyvictor1119 Месяц назад

You dont need any autel or other scan tool. Unplug electric brake motor wire and apply 12v. This saves lots of cash for a one time job

@JeffersonHumber 7 месяцев назад

I notice the old out board pad had a silver coloured shim cover on it, and this wasn't moved over to the new pad. Is that right, is that silver shim cover not really required for the new pad?

@fcpeuro 7 месяцев назад

Hi Jefferson, some pad manufacturers will often include them based on the sizing of the backplate, not mandatory, only to be used if part of the pad replacements you are installing.

@travismccarthy5681 7 месяцев назад

So I have a 2019 golf r I can use a standard piston compressor tool for rear calipers? I thought it was rotated ?

@fcpeuro 7 месяцев назад

Hi Travis, as shown here, they do not need to be spun in, your 19' model should be the same!

@GTI.OWNERSCLUB Год назад

Need obd eleven .

@hansmoser162 5 месяцев назад

Can the ignition be shut down after opening the brakes by OBD and while working on the brake? Or has the ignition to be on all the time?

@abdulyaseen4821 5 месяцев назад

Yea it won’t affect it and you don’t want your battery dying either. When you put everything back together. Turn the ignition back on and code it to close

@sydneyfranke 8 месяцев назад

I have just a normal pull handle for my e brake do I still need the 808?

@fcpeuro 8 месяцев назад

No need! Just make sure it's down before you start your brake job.

@TomGeez Год назад

"calibrated wrist" 💯😄

@paulthecarwhisperer250 6 месяцев назад

How come there are notches on the piston if they don’t need to wind back?

@fcpeuro 6 месяцев назад

More than likely, they are using existing tooling to create these pistons, vs creating new tooling and adding an unneeded cost when manufacturing. This is just my guess! -Mike

@nickdorn6876 Год назад

Is there a good way to retract the electronic parking break without a scan tool?

@MoistVW Год назад

Nope

@devbercy Год назад

Yes, remove the electric motor and manually twist it back. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5kWHFDzoWyk.html Easy.

@brdpit Год назад

@@MoistVW yes you can, plenty of videos how.

@SalvageMasterEssex Год назад

@@brdpit Not worth the risk. Save a few bucks and risk ruining the calipers. VW manual clearly states if you force pistons back without doing the diagnostic procedure the epb motors will be damaged. Some idiots are even telling viewers to dismantle the motors which VW warn against doing.

@mykeable 2 месяца назад

I have a 2018 Volkswagen Golf TSI Highline. Do I need that computer to read my car even though my parking brake is manual?

@fcpeuro Месяц назад

You will not need a scan tool if you do not have an electric parking brake!

@mykeable Месяц назад

@fcpeuro I figured. Only problem now is one of my lug bolts is seized right on. I have a 1/2in impact wrench with 1600lbs of nut busting torque. Not even that is breaking it free. Might have to drill it out.

@basilsoofi4244 Год назад

Are the GTI non performance pack rear rotors the same, where you don't need to remove the carrier to remove the rotor?

@afzalahmed3616 6 месяцев назад

Been a while, but yes same setup no need to remove caliper housing

@19S.G84 5 месяцев назад

@r1cko750 Год назад

Your packing system sucks My new rotors arrived scratched Shipping box was filled with paper Nothing else to protect the rotors.

@blue-ck9ns 7 месяцев назад

Lol wtf. It doesn’t matter if a rotor is scratched, it’s going to get all scratched up anyways from the brake pads rubbing up against it. My new rotors from the dealership also were scratched
