Front Brakes, FNR-G Caliper Overview

• After replacing brake pads, depress brake pedal firmly several times with vehicle stationary so that the brake pads are properly seated in their normal operating position.

• Use brake charger/bleeder unit (VAS 5234) or extraction device (V.A.G 1869/4) to extract brake fluid from brake fluid reservoir.

• Before removing brake caliper or disconnecting brake hose, brake pedal actuator (V.A.G 1869/2) must be inserted (this dissipates pressure).
