Video tutorial

In this video tutorial, you will learn how to replace the rear brake pads along with the brake rotors on an Audi A4 Avant. First, lift the vehicle from the rear (you can also use a jack) and unscrew the wheel bolts to remove the wheel.

Then, using two wrenches, unscrew the bolts of the brake caliper to detach it. Pull it away and remove the old pads; now you can decide whether to remove the rotor as well. To do this, unscrew the caliper bracket bolts and take it off the rotor.

At this point, unscrew the screws around the rotor and remove it, replacing it with the new one!
