Gerard, I was trying to reply to your comment below on the video length / detail.... mate I need to learn how to do this :):) Great Video Gerard !!!! keep up the great work, if someone needs all the details they probably shouldn't be doing work on their own motors..... :D
Thanks very much Johnny, valid point :)
Good video Ger. The car looks very fresh for caliper seals to leak! Did you replace with a recon unit or brand new replacement? Whats your view on rebuilding the caliper in-house as in cleaning the pistons and replacing the seals?
Hello Paul,
Believe it or not this was the 3rd caliper that this vehicle has had replaced, I was told by the customer that both front ones had failed before. I assume it must be reasonably common if that is the case.
This unit is a recon that comes with warranty, I don't replace seal myself as it literally can be done on the same day by swapping out a caliper like that, fast easy and under warranty, but if it was my own and time was not an issue (but usually always is) I might think about it.
Hey great Vid. Does the 2008 toureg require that abs tool to bleed properly? 3.6 liter with the 330mm and 4 pot calipers.(same as vid)
how did you bleed the brake system?
classic or with vag com abs function?
i have a 2008 touareg and all caliber and hose are good but i have a soft pedal and i dont know how to bleed the system, maybe you can teach me pls.
Any idea where they put the brake light switch on a 2009 VW Touareg?
did you need to fit new brake pads?any fluid contamination on the pads.
I would always recommend replacing the pads if fluid gets on them, in this case one pad had some fluid on it and the decision was made to only replace the caliper as the pads were fitted recently in another workshop.
ok,thanks for the reply.
No Problem.
A fixed Caliper for a VW, i'd say it must have cost a few quied!
Yes Simon not the cheapest ones for sure :)
M8 can't believe you showed how to replace brake pads but you left out the most important part how to bleed the twin bleed screws on the bimbo brakes so big let down and waste of time im sure for most who had to watch the vid then to find out you have left half the job out was disappointing
Dude you don't show how you do it, the video is too short for God's sake.
JUST A TIP FOR YA, yur making videos to show people how to fix things right, well be a little more thourough. show people how ya put the brake pads into the calipers and how ya opened them up to fit them in. get a little closer so people can see. for me i know how to do this stuff all ready. peace t ya need a little more detail. no drinks for u
Hello Tony,
Firstly I appreciate the comment and it is true for some people they will need to know every little detail, from early feedback on my channel and what people seemed to prefer was not to go in to every little detail as the videos get long and boring.
I try to compress my videos to show the main stuff and if I can help in the comments when I am free I always try to.
If more people would like that type video it is very easy do because I have all the footage and edit out plenty to make them less than 10 mins.
So for anyone reading it, like Tony's comment if you would prefer the video about 12-15 mins long with more detail.
All genuine feedback is useful. Thanks
gerard, no problem. but just remember people can forward video they can run it twice as fast. they can skip ahead etc etc peace t
So what your saying is longer videos and you buy drinks :)
I would always prefer a comment than a dislike, more frustrating to get dislikes with no bad comments at all :) Thanks for stopping in Conor
lol, there ya go.
