Title: Rear Brake Caliper Help - 2005
Post by: sambo101 on November 21, 2016, 09:46:12 am

Hey guys,

My rear nearside brake caliper has seized up. 2005 AXX GTi. I have the smooth type caliper and solid discs...

Is this the correct part to replace it with?

Thanks
Sambo

Don't you want a red one!
Don't quote me but thought the rear was 38mm piston?
