Used this tutorial for my 2009 R36. This OBD workaround worked perfectly Thanks buddy, I’ll be saving this video as a refresher course the next time I need to replace my rear pads 🤙
Handy get round thanks for watching like and subscribe
found this video by a fluke and it ended up saving my whole weekend!!! thanks a ton
Glad it helped
Brillaint fist time doin pads on a car with electric park break and this and just shown me I don't need spend more on diagnostic equipment to plug in . Top man well explained
Thanks Paul glad you got sorted good wee hack saves you a few quid thanks for watching
@@tonyakautos definitely mate I done mine today always heard horror stories about having plug em in but that proves over wise
@@pauljoynson6826 yeah theres always a way round it hate dealers trying to stop you doing your own brakes
Definitely mate just shows how many vulnerable people get pulled in by em
Hi , today I fixed my car after your video everything, worked perfectly Thank you very much!
Thank you very much biglad, I was just about to purchace a scanner to wind the calliper back and you've just saved me £90. Cheers again.
That's what it about keep it simple Robert glad it helped and saved you a few quid. Like and subscribe Tony from AK autos
Cheers for the clear explanation on this Tony. Will be using this tomorrow, as I bought new rear pads & discs for my '08 B6 today.
Hope it helps not too bad to do once you get that motor off ull be fine I'm sure Tony from AK autos like and subscribe
Good clear explanation of parts and instructions, on how to replace them. Keep up the good work, you helped me to avoid making a mistake that would be quite expensive to fix.
Thanks for the comment glad it worked out for you
Class video about to do my front and rear brakes and woulda been a blast to only find out about this when I'm doing them, said nobody ever😅
Brilliant video from a good northern Irish man
God save the queen🇬🇧
thanks for the vid . I found it easy once you remove the electrical plug its possible to unwind that screw with a phone charger or any 12 volt charge cable with the ends stripped off , then compress the piston and repeat until its bottomed out . No need to remove the motor assembly . Time saver :) now that park brake light can't wait till
i finish the other side and see if it goes out .
Thank you! This video is EXACTLY what I needed! Can you post a video for everything I run across in the future. No need for VAG COM!
Thank you for this tutorial! Very helpful and worked perfectly on my 2011 Passat B7 4 motion.
Thanks for watching like and subscribe Tony from AK autos
Thank you for this video. Made me confident enough to takle this job myself. 😊
Great video.
Helped me to get it done without any error messages.
THANK YOU!
Very helpfull bud. I done it a few years back and just needed to refresh the memory ! It's all coming back to me now, as Celine would say. Goin at it in the morning. Thanks
Thats the way even i have to watch them again sometimes 🤣
Great video. The two Torx bolts holding the motor on were seized on mine, so I re-mounted the caliper which made it much easier to get enough leverage to pop the two Torx bolts.
Good idea handy vice 👍
Thank you so much for this video! Clear and concise. This helped me complete the job without any issues 👍
Thanks glad it helped you
Perfect thank you never done pads with electric handbrake so this was useful
Good stuff, thank you so much for this tutorial. My dad and me just ended with our b6 brakes and it helps so we can know how to do next time without a expensive meister. :)
Glad it helped
Fantastic video. Saved me thousands. Did this myself in less than 1 h 30min.
Glad it helped out not the worst thing to do
Good stuff thanks for posting this up. I just did my B8 Passat using the exact same method of winding the actuator in. Calipers are different, but procedure is the same. Not much excess length on the motor cable, so you have to be careful not to disconnect the connector. Have to say the quality of parts as OEM on the car is shocking, 50k miles on a motorway based car and the brakes were ragged. The calipers will need refurb next time, I've the car from new. Last brakes I did was on an '01 E39 3.0D, fronts changed at 170k miles are rears at 140k.
Glad it helped they get bad quickly made of cheap materials don't want you to own them for long.
Glad, some people are straight-talking and do not overdo the being careful bit. The H manual makes things look possible to cock up big time. I have been around motors a long time and thought that motor ought to be the way forward if removed. Constantly fighting the geeks under the bonnet today and there has to always be a way to do straightforward mechanics without a bloody computer. Cheers confidence restored to default setting.
Fantastic tutorial. Edited perfectly and straight to the point. Thank you for sharing. Cheers!
Thanks for the comment glad it helped thanks for the feedback Jim, Tony from AK autos
@@tonyakautos are all passat b6 handbrake motors 6 tooth I'm needing to change mine but there's a 6 or 12 option on your vid it looks a 6tooth
@@MrMaxwell125 think they are all the same its a torx bit fits it so six piont ive swapped a few motors over from old calipers all been ok
@@tonyakautos thanks for the reply I have handbrake working light and and tell its not working on 1 side can I just take caliper off swap motor and not have to wind anything back etc I will turn handbrake off and disconnect battery thanks
Thanks a lot mate. U saved me a lot of blood ,sweat ,tears and money .
Just what I needed to see thanks, also loving how you say Torx bit lol.
Glad it helped you out had to do this myself the other week when a motor failed wouldnt release mad had to get the tor x bits out 😅
Love these videos have to confidence to tackle a seized rear caliper on my passat b6 apparently a common problem
Great video ,always good to learn something new,on another note Ive always wanted to visit a country where they drive on the other side of the road so i can see how man wrecks i can get in before the day is over,lol
Its handy once you get used to it 🤣
This was the best clip I’ve seen yet on this topic
Thanks glad it helped you think its helped a gd few now thats why i make them
@@tonyakautos I had the brake tool and it didn’t have the correct adapter . Watching this saved my ass
Glad you got sorted
Every thing explained so easy ,thank you

Yes sooo good guide and easy thnxs and this will also be comment 160 so thnxs yes common B6 problem for sure and switch.
Thanks for the comment glad it was straight forward Tony from AK Autos 🚘
Thanks for the video, well explained. I did on 1 side , when I tried to put the motor back on it gets stuck in that o-ring. I tried screwing in the screws and tightening them little by little to tighten evenly but the plastic holding the screw broke from the mounting. I then went to the other side 1 screw was pretty rusted and really tight, after few careful tries I destroyed the head and don't know how to remove it, any tips on that?
Wd40 the bolt leave it on for a while overnight if possible then stud extractor or vicegrips. The seal try a little grease silicone grease if possible should help sorry to hear you had so much grief but thats my world one broken nut away from a bad day hope u get sorted.
@@tonyakautos hey thanks for the answer. I eventually drilled the screw and made a new thread, wouldnt come off no matter how I tried. But still can't put the motors back together, when I try to close them it pinches on the oring, I even glued it back together but still nothing. I know it has it's use but can't I just leave it out? Lol
Helped me out of a situation 👍

Thanks for an amazing video Anthony mate! helped me so much for the future when im working on my B6 Passat
Very well explained, great video.
Just what I needed to see. The motor cover is cracked and should be sealed to stop ingress of water.
Yeah i replaced it for customer after the video but didnt want to shoot the whole thing again
😊YES...!!! Very helpful vid
Thanks much ✌
Thanks for watching glad it helped you out
Thanks mate works great 😊
Glad it helped you
It did help thanks man I had no idea lol thanks again
Glad it helped
Say great video and I see it was 3yrs ago but I do have a question. Is the 2005-08 Audi A6C6 rear brake calibers with Electric E-brake the same or compatible with the 2005-11 VW Passat rear calipers like what u just did video on?
thank you
Did you crack the electric brake motor housing, should not interfere with function, but I would clean all that corrosion completely. I would use some high temp epoxy to seal it up to prevent future corrosion, otherwise fabulous video tutorial yo!!!!
No it was broke before I started it sealed it up but thanks for watching glad it helped like and subscribe Tony from Akautos
Lovely video. It's giving me enough info to tackle this myself. I'm sure you mentioned that the piston can be pushed back with just a g clamp but could you please clarify this before I have a go. Thanks again for a great video.
Sorry only seeing this yes a g clamp or prybar will just push back
@@tonyakautos thanks. Unfortunately I couldn't get the torx bolt undone
Awesome video thank you mate
Thanks for the comment glad it helped you out Tony from AKAutos
thanks a lot man ;)
Thank you. 👍😉
Amazing❤
Really helpful video, cheers 🍻
Thanks glad it helped
Legend! Thanks so much.
Thank you!! Legend 🙌
Nice vid 👍🏻 I'm looking tackle the squealing park brake on the wife's Passat. Any idea if it's something that can be serviced or best to replace the motors?
Great concise video. Only thing you never mentioned which I've seen loads of stuff online about having to programme the handbrake in the ecu so it doesn't over wind and eventually cause damage. I'm guessing this isn't the case?
No its been fine on the ones i done the same wind out happens on the service mode with the computer
Grate vid , verry helpfull
@Owen john Griffith glad it helped you like and subscribe Tony from AK autos
Did mine today in the sunshine during Coronavirus lockdown. Had the bits for a while but not had time. Great video very helpful thank you. Have you done a video to turn off the service notification for this model?
No but I've a few for vw and a3 they are not far away check them out that's gd your making the most of lock down glad it helped thanks for watching like and subscribe Tony from AK autos. My neighbour has this Passat so I'm sure before long it will be in for a service will post one of the service reset David
@@tonyakautos Fab. Thank you
Do you have the button with the Wrench icon in the dash? If not, the service reminder cannot be reset without a software tool. Unless I've misunderstood something, if the sticker in the spare wheel container in the trunk has code "QG1" then your dash will be missing the Wrench button because the car is supposed to use flex service interval where computer estimates the service times and the setup assumes that you actually want to have it serviced in official repair center. If that's true, you need something like VCDS or OBDEleven to reset the service notification.
Hi I have done this method worked perfectly and saved me some cash but now I have a parking brake fault any idea on how I can reset this cheers
Great video
Thanks for the comment Justin glad it helped not to bad when you know how cheers for watching Tony from AK autos like and subscribe
So greatful
*Mate did you crack that case on the epb motor ? 😐*
No it was cracked before I started
Thank you for this video . I have one question: passat b6 have senzor on the brake pads?
Not always on the rear the front have sensors
Ok , thanks.
Did you say the torx bit was a 30 or 40 for the motor screwing part that unwinds the mechanical motor
40 sorry
@@tonyakautosty!! Great video
Thanks hope it helps u out
I need to change my EPB motor, do you know if i have to rewind the calliper piston during this procedure?
Just lining it up might be a little off so move the torx screw back then when u start the motor it will go until it feels pressure of the pad against the discs then recalibrate so u could leave ur caliper on then just fit the motor.
Hi great video. My 2008 Passat dsg is saying parking brake fault and my brakes have gone spongey. My local garage has said that I need a new calliper. Was just wondering if this is correct ? Thank you
Sound about right I've one to do this weekend fault light on if ur caliper is leaking fluid then u will get a sponge pedal caliper will need replaced
Amazing I need to lean more
if im replacing the control element do i need to replace it with the same brand as the caliper?
i can find other control elements a lot cheaper but im not sure if they will be compatible...
U mean the motor itself they should all have the same spline on the caliper but not 100% to be honest only ever replaced whole units when the failed. But they where expensive
Ive got a 58 2008 passat b6 need a new electric hand brake is it a 6 or 12 tooth motor i need?
Will this trick work for B7 Passat? (Alltrack 2014, 4 motion)
do not need to take off the parking motor, just turn off the plug and set 9volts on the parking motor set plus on minus and minus on plus;) then it goes back;)
You can do it that way just make sure you dont wind it the wrong way when it's out or the piston will fall out new calipers required my ways a bit safer for the diyer
So once you've used the handbrake a few time it 'resets it self???
Once you pump the pedal out then turn on the ignition the handbrake will reset itself you will hear the motors turning for longer than normal then they stop that's you sorted Tony from AK autos like and subscribe thanks for the comment
@@tonyakautos thank you very much.. I can save myself £50... I did say that to them at awesome.. it's a relay that stops the motor when it can't turn no more... thanks again
I'm using a t30 to move the motor but I think its rounded a nut off and can reset the piston to get the caliper back on. Ant ideas on what I could to or is it a whole new caliper
Hi Leigh yeah if you wear the teeth down the only way is to replace second hand maybe might be an option to keep the cost down
I got parking brake fault after assembling everything. Parking brake works fine, just throws error message and yellow "P" light on dash
I followed this tutorial and I'm getting a horrible burning smell and my wheel is smoking. Not sure if I've went wrong somewhere but do you have any ideas what this could be?
2008 Passat
1.9 highline TDI
Unrelated thats a separate issue might be your clock spring behind the steering wheel has shorted out nothing to do with the brakes I would think
@@tonyakautos I feel like it's the piston motor that's the problem, possibly didn't wind it back far enough. I've bought a new motor anyways and gonna put it on to try it. I initially changed all of my break pads to clear the 'check brake pads' light and it didn't clear it and that rear right wheel is the only one causing me problems. Got some extra pads aswell so gonna follow again step by step and more carefully 👌
Thnx.. 👌🏾
Cheers
I tried this but, the piston will only recede part way. It stops at the half way point. What can be causing the piston from not winding fully back in?
If you are absolutely sure you have rotated the screw that would normally operated by the motor the whole way, I'd guess your caliper has rust or some other thing broken inside the caliper. I'd just replace the whole caliper because those cost about 50 EUR a piece. If you feel lucky, you could just get repair kit but in my experience, once the caliper starts to misbehave, it never works correctly without reworking the metal parts and then it's cheaper to just replace the caliper.
First time i heard it called tor-x.
What is a Torax, something on Dr. Suess?
great
Anyone else getting premature wear on the outer pads on the rear? The pistons are not stuck and one of the calipers is brand new so that's not it... Right now the only thing I could suspect is the pad clips being old... but I've sanded them down properly and greased them and the pads move freely. Guide pins are not stuck either. I am completely lost...
Will this technique work on the B7 models?
Yes the set up is the same for most of the models right up Jordan
@@tonyakautos Thanks Tony. On the driveway this weekend then. :)
Hi my car is currently on axle stands, I’ve wound it clockwise but it won’t let me push the cylinder back :(
The caliper may be seized if you do that it will go back but the piston may be seized. What are you pushing it back with
AK Autos just using a g clamp. I have a rewind tool on the way now lol
Put a load of wd40 or something around it also make sure you take the brake fluid cap off sometimes that helps
👍
Save yourself the hassle and put a 9 volt battery across the motor terminals to rewind the piston, then squash it back in with a C clamp. Easy squeezy
а зачем всё снимать,там два болта только нужно раскрутить.
