Replacing Rear Brake Pads and Rotors on Audi A4 Avant

Model: Audi A4 B7 - Years 2004-2008
Part: Brake pads

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!

How to Reset the Central Locking of the Volkswagen Golf 4?

If the central locking system of the Volkswagen Golf 4 is not working, it is likely necessary to reset the system: to do this, open the driver's door and detach the side panel of the dashboard next to the steering wheel. Under this panel, you will find the fuses, including the one for the central locking, which is indicated in the manual as number 14. To reset the system, remove this fuse from its housing, then reinsert it or replace it with a new one of the same amperage: this will reset the central locking system.
