Carlyle VAG Rear Brake Piston Wind Back Adaptor (CBPWBRA)

Description

Genuine Carlyle · Part no. CBPWBRA

The Carlyle CBPWBRA is a single adaptor for a brake piston wind-back tool, made for the rear calipers on VAG cars (the Volkswagen group, whose main car brands include VW, Audi, SEAT, Skoda and Cupra). It turns and presses a rear piston back into its caliper at the same time, making room for new pads.

Good to know

• Is it a complete tool? No, it is the adaptor only: it fits on a wind-back tool body that does the turning and pushing, so check it suits the tool you own before buying.
• Will it fit my rear caliper? It is listed for VAG rear calipers; compare its pegs with the slots or holes in your piston face, as the patterns vary between calipers.
• My car has an electronic handbrake, can I just wind it back? Usually not: on most cars the rear caliper must go into service mode first, often with a diagnostic tool, or the motor and the piston can be damaged.
• Anything else before winding back? Take the reservoir cap off and watch the level, since the fluid rises as the piston goes in, and turn the piston the way your caliper needs.

Which one?
