Installing
Note:
Before inserting new brake pads, press piston
back into the cylinder with resetting tool. Before
pressing the piston back, remove some brake
fluid from the reservoir with a bleeder bottle. If
reservoir has been topped up, fluid may overflow
and cause damage. Note: - Press piston back. - Install brake pads. - Swing brake caliper housing down and tighten bolt. The repair kit contains two self-locking bolts which must always be installed. After replacing the brake pads, depress brake
pedal firmly several times with the vehicle
stationary so that the brake pads are properly
seated in their normal operating position. Page 7 of 7Front brakes, servicing (Girling caliper)12/7/2004http://ebahn.bentleypublishers.com/vw/servlet/Display?action=Goto&type=repair&id=VW.B4.SU01.46.1

Installing
Note:
Before pressing the piston back, remove some
brake fluid from the reservoir. Use a bleeder
bottle or a plastic bottle which is only used for
brake fluid. Brake fluid is poisonous and must not
be siphoned by mouth through a hose. Note: - Thread in piston by turning knurled wheel of
special tool 3272 clockwise.
- Install brake pads. Install special tool 3272 so that the collar (arrow)
of the tool is seated against the brake caliper. If the piston is difficult to move, use a 13 mm
open end wrench on the flats (arrow A) provided
for this purpose. If the piston is pushed back with a piston resetting
tool or by operating the foot brake, the automatic
adjustment in the brake caliper will be destroyed. Page 8 of 10Rear wheel brakes, servicing (disc brakes)12/7/2004http://ebahn.bentleypublishers.com/vw/servlet/Display?action=Goto&type=repair&id=VW.B4.SU01.46.5

- Secure brake caliper housing with new self-
locking bolts. Note: - Attach parking brake cable (arrow) to brake caliper housing. After each brake pad change firmly depress brake
pedal several times with vehicle stationary, so
that the brake pads are properly seated in their
normal operating position. After changing brake pads check brake fluid level. Page 9 of 10Rear wheel brakes, servicing (disc brakes)12/7/2004http://ebahn.bentleypublishers.com/vw/servlet/Display?action=Goto&type=repair&id=VW.B4.SU01.46.5
