Motor for electric parking brake?
Posted: Tue Mar 12, 2019 4:53 pm
Hi.
2015 S Macan...following tips from the forums I replaced the rear brake pads at the weekend...
Don't have PIWIS so attempted to rewind the e-parking piston using a 12v supply, which wasn't entirely successful, so resorted to removing the motor casing on the back of the piston and winding it back manually....
All good on the near side, but on re-assembling the driver's side, when re-affixing the motor, I managed to crack the black plastic housing of the electric motor...!!!
I now need to replace the motor...
Given the pads (and the capliers?) appear to be the same as the Audi A6 and A7, I'm hoping the piston and motor are too...
Does anyone know / know which other VAG vehicles use this set up / does anyone know which motors are compatible?
Thanks.
