brake change questions
what tool do i need to remove the calipers(front and rear)
|
Re: brake change questions
Are you removing the caliper from the upright? I usually remove the bolts on the caliper slides, this leaves the carrier attached to the upright, the actual caliper is loose. A caliper reset tool is helpful, but the caliper can be reset with c-clamps or many other innovative home tools.

I'm replacing the rotors

Re: brake change questions
Then just remove the 2 13mm holding the caliper pins, pry the caliper body off

Re: brake change questions
I don't know if this is applicable, but double check to make sure you know what bolts are the pins. I have to sets, one are the pins, the other holds the two parts of the caliper together, don't want to take those out.

Did a write up in this forum https://www.audiforum.ca/a6-s6-rs6-7...a6-2-7t-69356/ It is not difficult, getting the cradle off was the hardest. I used an electric impact |
