Putting brakes on the rear of the car listed above Quattro Premium.

Cannot get either rear caliper to collapse. I have the correct tool, did not know if there was something I was suppose to do before or what.

Thanks, Mark

Hey Mark,

Got another car going? Lets get it fixed!

You must remove the electronic parking brake motor from the caliper before you retract the caliper. Here are the diagrams and instructions to do the complete rear brake job. (Below)

Check out the diagrams (below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Cheers, Ken
