Replacing EVERYTHING on the Audi S3 8P REAR brakes
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 5 ต.ค. 2024
- The Audi S3 8P was in desperate need of rear discs and pads but it soon turned into a full restoration and all new rear brake parts being fitted. Parts include: discs, pads, callipers, pad carriers, brake hoses, brake pipes and brake guards along with all the bolts.
Really happy with the end result and hopefully I will not be having an issues with the rear brakes for a while now.

That wheel bolt that holds the wheel bearing to the wheel hub should have a cover on it. The cover seals it from the elements. There’s a fair chance the bearing will go if it’s not done already. Stretch bolts stretch and therefore can only be used once. By stretching they ‘lock’ in place and will not come loose from vibrations. No locktite required.

I love seeing a great brake job.
Just want to leave a tip for anybody that will do this in the future. When doing rear brakes the carrier doesn't need to be removed as the disc will slide past it.
And for the OP, if you look closely you had the dust shield for the other side. So if you bought the pair you just needed to get the other dust shield.
But as i said. This was a job very well done. ✌✌
The carrier has to be removed on the Audi S3 unfortunately. All other models the disc will slide past the carrier but not on this one 👍
@@projectfearn good to know..
I really had no idea the S3 was the exception.. Thanks man..
Just a FYI for anyone else that sees this comment, this also applies to the 3.2 VR6 quattro model too, which I've recently learnt the hard way lol
this also applies to the A3 8p as I found out the hard way this weekend. I fought for hours to get the bottom one off with PB and a hell of a lot of torque, only to see the other top one after thinking it was sorted. I didn't have this shallow head spline and theres absolutely 0 clearance to get in with anything else.
Informative and in depth as always..:)
They use stretch bolts I think on cylinder heads too...
I think when you torque them up ..they remain torqued and dont easily come loose...epecialy when they hot or cold.. the bolt actually twists and stays that way to achieve this..
But once they have been used there is a danger if you use them again..torqued up they can break...
New stretch bolts also dont rely on loctite...
Lots on google ..woogle about them.. :)

Thanks for the info pal 👍
Thank you very much! for doing such a great video. This has helped me with doing the work myself 👍👍👍
You are very welcome pal 👍
Looks a fantastic job. Really appreciate how you do everything properly 👍
Cheers pal 👍
Good job mate, I got my dad to do the rear brakes on my S3 and those carrier bolts gave him hell, it's the fact you have got no space and have to have the right size tool to fit the gap, it made a hell of a crack sound when he did get them undone🤣
Was deffo an experience mate but just happy it's done and I know what to expect in the future now 😀
Great video Danny. Such a thorough job. At least you won't need to worry about that anymore now so that's good. What's up next for you to do on the S3 then?. Take care chap. Look forward to the next one.
Front coil spring, air con has stopped working, maybe front discs and pads, haldex oil and filter (may pay someone to do this one) 😎
Nice one mate - proper decent job you've done there - well done!
Cheers Phil mate 👍
Hi Danny,nice work on the Audi,the brake shields are brilliant a bit of paint makes them new again, definitely makes a difference.
Yeah really happy with how it turned out pal 👍
The famous carrier bolts😔😂well done mate nightmare these can be, a lot easier doing pads and disks on most other cars😂👌
Was a life lesson this mate bit so glad I didn't give up. Now I know how to do them if I ever did them again it would be alot easier and got the correct tools top now which dragged the job out last time having to stop all the time and order stuff. 🙃
@@projectfearn the 1/2” stubby multispline bit is a must to do this job
Deffo. Along with that short breaker bar and a good breakfast before you start the job 👍
I can't find those calipers for less than $400CAD here in Canada. :((
Gutted 😢
Love the detail Danny, no step missed 😎👍
Cheers Paul ✌️
Nice one Danny ! I’ve just always called them backplates 👍 how’s the Escort these days ?
Hi pal. Just seen this. Sorry for the late reply. Escort is still sat in the corner pal feeling sorry for itself 🤣
nice but if i would change everything i would change the wheelbearings aswell
Danny, it is a pointless excercise to spray releasing fluid onto to the head of a seized bolt, you need to spray it onto the the actual thread. I always spray the fluid on 24 hours before I start stripping components that are likely to be seized and/or very tight.
Sometimes you can't get to the threads so spraying the head and around it let's the fluid hopefully penetrate down and work its magic 😎
@@projectfearn That's true, but it's rare that you can't get to the end of the bolts. I don't find WD40 to be the most effective penetrating fluid, I've been using Kano Aerokroil.
I had a few tins of wd40 super penetrative and it was amazing. Also the ice spray too has been unreal
Can you give me please, part number for this black edition calipers and carriers?
Thx
Can you show me where is the outside temperature sensor located please
I'm sure it's behind the front bumper 👍
Nice job by the way.
Cheers pal 👍
You need to deal with the rust man, it's a serious issue there
Its surface rust on the suspension components. Nothing a good clean can't sort 👍
Is there a way to replace the brake disc without removing the caliper bracket? I've got new discs laying around, but only want to remove the caliper bracket if absolutely necessary, given how much of a pain in the ass they are.
Not on the S3 pal. On the other models the disc can be removed without removing that carrier bracket but unfortunately not on the s3. They are going to have to come off sooner or later pal and once I figured it out it all went well 👍
@@projectfearn Thanks for the quick response! Still got the bold part number on hand by any chance? I'll give it a try soon, see how it goes :)
The carrier bolts are N91168901 pal. Was £18 for 4 😎
@@projectfearn Thanks a bunch, just got them from the dealer! BTW, how did you find out the torque specs and the part numbers? Is there some kind of workplace manual that I'm unaware of? Couldn't find one myself.
I found all the torque specs online pal from people uploading pages from the workshop manuals. As for the part numbers I use a website called catcar pal 😎
