Love the MK3 content, happy I found christians channel years ago, and also stoked to see you uploading MK3 content!! :D your viibes and energy are killer dude! Cheers from Oregon, hope you guys are safe and doing well! :3
@@caseosmith6405 dude, for real.. be willing to make mistakes, but always willing to make it right. Never give up. Also, sometimes a good cry is step two. Much love, stay blessed.
Every "mistake" is an opportunity to learn. We've all been there at one time. The new brake pads are much wider than the worn ones, which is why you have to push the pistons back so much.
Keep making progress! It be like that sometimes, I went outside the other day to do like 3 things on my vr6 and was only successful with like half of one thing LOL! We'll get it next time!
Nice work, everyone started somewhere & best of luck to you😉 ! Brake pads...Boring bit -------> The slot in the middle is to relieve pressure from the gases and dust as the friction material is used against the disk. The paper on the back does the same as copper grease for damping the pad and stopping the squeak sound (Just remember your physics lessons about energy) brakes convert Kinetic energy into heat energy but we don't want sound energy. Really love the white GTI would be the perfect place for a E888 conversion 😍
Awesome video on a sunny day 😎 Glad to see you're cat sitting at the moment 😺 GTI is looking good and glad to see new brakes going on her now, to be completed in the near future. I really like your positive attitude, this motivates me to work on my VW's 🐬
Good attitude ! Never, ever hit a screwdriver with the palm of your hand. I did it once, and bruised my hand for nearly six months. Go figure. Thanks again, RickGTI….. 🇺🇸🔧
11:40 Yeah, you can forget things but I can't. It looks like you're using a single jackstand on the passenger side of the beam and the floor jack on the driver's side. I hope that's not the case because that's pretty dangerous. ALWAYS use jackstands in pairs and if you want to have the floor jack as a backup, that's fine but just make sure the car is on the jackstands 100%. There's no reset button in real life.
I was gonna honeslty be lazy and just get a different cat back exhaust so I have all the pieces that fit, but i should look at a flexi pipe instead, thank you!❤️
please please please please use jack stands especially if your going to get under the car .. you used one on the passenger side but not the side you were working on .. but keep on learning !

Ugh you right:)
'Thicker' is what you meant to say. If they were wider, they wouldn't fit. 😉

LMAO, you're deffo the funnier person at the Smith's House. Keep on going mate.
Awww thank you😂

Thank you for all that ☺️
No master has fallen from the sky yet. Don't give up and keep going. I think it's good that you want to do it alone. do not give up👍👍👍👍☺
Thank you Matthias ☺️

Aw thank you! And yesss get it done!
You are doing a great progress. Other guys sometimes also forget to order some parts. I heard that from a friend.
Good attitude ! Never, ever hit a screwdriver with the palm of your hand. I did it once, and bruised my hand for nearly six months. Go figure. Thanks again, RickGTI….. 🇺🇸🔧
will do😅 thank you!

"I am sick of this" - most said phrase by all volkswagen owners.
The paper on the breakpads need get of , because the glue on it is to fix and hold it in Position.
Is the Pink Floyd going with you guys to ND, or are you storing it in Florida?
It will get stored in Florida
Hey Girl, have you though about aluminium flexi pipe to bridge the straight pipe to the muffler?
I was gonna honeslty be lazy and just get a different cat back exhaust so I have all the pieces that fit, but i should look at a flexi pipe instead, thank you!❤️
I would hate to pull that jack across that floor 🤣
It is trash😂
please please please please use jack stands especially if your going to get under the car .. you used one on the passenger side but not the side you were working on .. but keep on learning !
