on some epb you need to use a scan tool to move the piston back, as yet i havent had the pleasure of replacing pads on a passat with epb

they are easy enough to do with the right tool,you will need a scan tool that can do the epb the instructions are on the ross tech web site,as long as the pads arent down to the steel you wont have a problem.........but if they are down to the steel then i hope you have a large piggy bank.......
