How did you release the automatic handbrake….?
Can you get away with starting the car, releasing the handbrake and then just turning the car off…?
Thank you. You just saved me a lot of money :)
Thanks for the comment I’m glad it helped you :)
Encourages me to make some more videos
Hello, What size are the bolts for the caliper? The ones that need torqued to 45nm , I got pads but they didn’t supply the bolts
13mm mate. You can get spare bolts from eurocarparts in the brake accessories section.
Thank you, did the right side but struggling on the left side on taking away the caliper. Seems to be stuck on the bottom. Top would wiggle out fine but bottom, no chance.
Any advice?
Hello Riropower. Ensure the slide pins are removed. You’ll see in the video where I pinch/depress the rubber housing of the slide pins to allow space for the pads to sit.
I’d advise on spraying some brake cleaner and maybe turn the wheel so you have more access to the calliper
@@chiragbulsara Thank you for your fast feedback, indeed I didn‘t turn the wheel, will try later this weekend and applying your tips, thanks!
No stress. Let me know how you get on. You can always contact me on Instagram @chiggyservice
@@chiragbulsara Thank you, one of my mechanic friends took it on a lift to get a better look, turned out that the bottom slide pin was totally corroded that‘s why I didn‘t get it off 😄 Everything‘s changed now, thanks again!
@riropower glad you got it sorted in the end. Thanks again for your support.
Do you have to change the sensor every time? Thanks
No you don’t have to change the sensor every time. But what you will find is due to the brake dust and rust it will be difficult to remove and you could possibly break it when trying to remove it. The sensor is less than £5 and very easy to install. It can also be removed and installed without having to remove the calliper assembly.
All wrong, why don't checked brake caliper sliders ?
I can’t remember ngl
Which brembo pads was those i got a 2018 a5 quartro ?
10144168A
That’s the product code from eurocarparts
Can't see what you was doing
Anything I can help clarify for you?

I was told I had to have a compute to reset emergency brake
I’m not sure about that. It definitely helps if you have vcds as that may be an option
