rear brake replacement
searched around a bit and couldnt find a solid write-up so i figured i'd start this thread as i am doing my rear rotors and pads before. I have done brake jobs on many cars before but never the S or any AUDI... i read somewhere that the rear pistons need to be turned while compressing them or something? if anyone could steer me in the right rdirection to either a write up or some quick helpful tips i'd appreciate it. thank you.

Just use this write up for the rear wheel bearing change:
Also, FYI - I used a medium sized C-Clamp to retract the rear brake pistons and it worked great. No special tool really necessary.<ul><li><a href="https://www.audiworld.com/tech/wheel45.shtml">https://www.audiworld.com/tech/wheel45.shtml</a</li></ul>
