RS4 Brake Pad Change |

Just tap the two pins toward the inside of the caliper with a suitable drift and mallet...
At this point, I reset the pistons with a pair of channel lock pliers
and a shop rag to protect the paint finish...just drab the edge of the
pad backing plate and apply steady pressure until they're all the way
in...and watch for fluid overflowing from the reservoir.
Unplug the wear sender harness and remove it from the bracket by rotating 90 degrees and slip it out...
The pins, H-clips, and old pads removed...
8-pistons...excellent...
Install is the reverse of removal, don't forget to reset the pistons by
pumping the brake pedal a few times before pulling off the lift and out
of the garage. :P
