Finally!! Was: Slight OT: Golf Brake Prob's



Got it finally, the piston was just a little stuck, and with only my hands, 
a 3/16 deep socket, and a funkey jack handle, it finally moved. the other 
side only took me 10min to change the pads and the rotor. car drives better 
(still a POS) but I need to break in the pads for a bit.
