Replacing Rear Brake Discs and Pads

Model: Audi A4 B6 - Years 2000-2004
Part: Brake rotors

Lift the vehicle on a lift and remove the rear wheel. Then, remove the brake caliper mounting bolts and detach the caliper from the bracket after disconnecting the parking brake cable. Remove the old pads and take off the caliper bracket to remove the old disc. Before installing the new one, it is advisable to clean the hub surface and apply grease. Install the new disc, the caliper bracket, insert the new pads, and retract the caliper piston using the appropriate tool: the piston must be rotated to retract. Once the caliper is installed, reconnect the parking brake cable.
