    Is there a DIY thread for brake pad replacement?

    I went to replace my pads on my '01 AR & they are a little intimidating & def. different than any other I have done in the past. I was wondering if there is a DIY somewhere, I checked on here, vwvortexcom & on the Allroadforum.com but couldn't find anything.

    Holy 'ish, the way I was trying was wayyyyyy wrong, I thought it was like my B5 1.8T & you have to take the calipers off, it's way easier to change my AR pads than my old B5 then.

    THANKS sooo much for the link, I have bookmarked it!!!
