    Front Caliper 10 point Socket - Help

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I need to replace my front rotors and need to remove my calipers. There is a 10 point bolt that requires a special socket that I don't know where to get it. Anyone have a source?

    Unfortunately not. It is for this bolt, 10 point.

    that is not the bolt to remove it

    there should be 2 19mm bolts that go into the back of the hub (go the same direction as the wheel bolts but towards the outside of the car)

    I had searched back there because the Audi maintenance manual shows the bolts entering from that direction. I can't seem to locate them.

    That is a far different setup but I get where you are describing them to be.

    This is what you need. I just replaced the brake pads on my S8 plus to dustless. The bolt the OP showed removes the bracket with the caliber from the hub. I have not tried that method. I received my socket in 7 days.

    That link did not work for me, but this Amazon link does.
