Title: question about wind back tool
Post by: njdudsbury on January 07, 2015, 11:13:10 pm

Going to do my rear pads at the weekend on my 56 plate. My mate has let me borrow his wind back tool from a 08 plate seat Leon fr. Will that fit my set up?
from memory the brakes look identical? Cheers

Not 100% but it must be the same surely.

You're supposed to fit new caliper bolts to the rear brakes, not re-use the ones you remove. If you buy genuine pads these are supplied.

Yep got them in box with new metal slides as well. What's the torque figure for those. Anybody know?
