How do you change the brake pads on a VW?
I changed both rear calipers yesterday (new from Eurocarparts) along with discs and pads – all PAGID brand. Bled the brakes using VW brake fluid, and a Sealey pressure bleeder (one man jobbie) – pump up the reservoir, then undo one nipple at a time.

Now prior changing the calipers, the brakes were always great on this car.- very little travel in the pedal (if any) and good feel. With engine off, the pedal would be rock solid – no movement at all when you pressed hard on it.
How do you change the rear brake pads?
Release handbrake cable from actuator on rear of calliper. Remove the return spring and rotate the arm, allowing the cable to be released easily. Lower guide pin bolt (13mm, and 19mm spanner to hold the end of the sleeve it goes into) is now removed and inner caliper frame hinged upwards, leaving pads in position either side of disc.
How much does it cost to replace front brake discs?
Front brake pads take up to 75% of the stopping force, so they tend to be thicker than those used on the rear (which are generally for stability on an average car) and can therefore cost more. Brake discs are generally replaced in pairs and cost on average around £75 each, fully fitted, but can cost from as little as £30.
What happens when you press the brake pedal?
When the brake pedal is pressed it forces brake fluid through the system which causes the brake pads to press against the brake discs and slow the vehicle down. The master cylinder converts the force (when you press the brake pedal) into hydraulic pressure, which in turn pushes brake fluid, through brake hoses to the brake caliper.
