Replacing Rear Brake Pads

Model: Audi Tt MK 2, 8J - Years 2006-2014
Part: Brake pads

Lift the vehicle on appropriate jack stands and remove the rear wheel; then unscrew the retaining bolts of the brake caliper to remove it; next, take out the old pads and use the appropriate tool to retract the piston: in this case, the piston should not be pushed in, but turned clockwise. Then install the new pads and reassemble the brake caliper. Repeat the same process on the other wheel. Pump the brake pedal until it provides the correct resistance and pay attention during the initial braking.
