    Just been all night messing about with the breaks on my Seat Ibiza mk2, it turns out I messed up big time the automatic adjuster, i just copy it from the ones installed, first i did the passenger side and I guess I was lucky and it fitted like a glove, but on the driver's side that's when it all went wrong, eventually I managed to make it fit but had to loosen up the hand brake cable but when I tried to adjust it again of course it did not work, so I quit and went to bed and came across your vid, tomorrow I will check everything again and will have to adjust the automa...... Thank you very much for the vid, de groeten van uit Portugal ✌️

    Excellent tutorial 👌🏻 thanks very much.
    But I have a question about the adjustment on these. Do they self adjust when you press or pump the brake pedal or do you have to adjust them manually?
    Thanks again 👍🏻

    You can do this without taking the bearing off, specifically for those that don’t have the proper tools to install it again, because there is a crazy torque specs on it, 180nm +180°. You can even do it without taking the brake cylinder off.

    Didn't see any car repair video before that was as funny as this one. Okay, I wouldn't ask this garage to repair my car but it's great entertainment. I like it and I wouldn't be surprised to see the very same car in another video soon... maybe the wheel bearing didn't have enough of that "German Quality" to survive the Dutch treatment 😂

    For the difficult springs, would be wise to put them in boiling water to ease them up a bit? Making it easier to pull into place? Especially the last one at 16:30

      @@TheDutchGarage It didnt go as planned, initially i had no manual handbrake or rear brakes. Turns out the auto adjuster isnt really... working... on VAG models in most cases. Had to knock down the adjusting pin so the drums couldnt go on. Then knock it back bit by bit until the drums just about cleared the shoes. Still not optimal and it isnt auto adjusting even when braking hard. Aside from that this vid helped!
      I think its due to the original metal piece you keep between the shoes, different tolerances between original parts and new OEM parts.

    • @TheDutchGarage
      @TheDutchGarage  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Between information there are some abnormalizes. But i know for sure if you torque it to 37 pound feet you are going to loose a wheel. What i could find for the 9n is 155NM. The way I did it is for the 6r polo. The brakes may be the same but sometimes the torque specs are different .

      They are cheaper to produce so they tend to put them on smaller cars that require less stopping force. They emit less brake dust, No expensive caliper repairs and they’re is a small weight saving too. But yeah brake discs are easier really
