RE: [NON ROC] HELP, Passat B3 brakes

["Dan S" <danws@tampabay.rr.com>]

no kit, you will need an 11mm (on my Roc, anyway) to turn the piston
clockwise. (If there's no hole in the piston, then there should be some way
to turn it. I'm assuming he's having a problem making the piston recess? If
so, that's my suggestion. I could be wrong for a Passat, but I hope that
helps.

Subject: [NON ROC] HELP, Passat B3 brakes




   Need some info here. My dad is fixing the brakes on my sisters Passat and
is having trouble with the rear. He called someone and they said he needed a
kit to do them. Is this in any way true? Does it require more than just the
same tools that were used for the front. I fear that my dad got the "kit
required" story from the stealership that robbed my sister for $1K to fix
her car the first (and last) time.I never had a VW with rear disk. Any
advice is appreciated.
