Just did this on my 2017 Tiguan. Worked like a charm! I had OBDEleven specifically for this... and of course got an error message when trying to retract the electronic parking brake the "correct way". Thanks for the backup plan 🙂
-
You have just genuinely saved my bacon bro
-
This worked brilliantly whilst doing my discs and pads on my 2015 tiguan today. Thanks for the informative video 😊
-
Great Vid!! A 2 hour job for free 99, gotta love "do it yourself" mechanic's!! Much appreciated 👌🏽
-
Love the video. Absolutely hate electronic park brake. I have an OBD scanner that’ll do this, but your method is actually faster. Appreciate it.
-
I love you with all my heart!!!! Lol If it wasn't for this video I don't know what I would have done. I had everything torn apart and was stuck cause I couldn't compress the piston! Thank you so much for taking the time to explain this and make this video!!!

Just used it on audi q3 2020. You are my lifesaver.
-
You save my day. Works like a charm on tIguan 2013... thank you.
-
Thank you for the video bro. Same setup as my 13 optima. Doing the rear pads today. Really appreciate it
-
Just amazing 👏. After going through your video i have replace my car seat alhambra 2013 rear brake pad. Thanks..
-
Great tip! With no computer this tip works and saved me!

You Sir are a life saver, had my car all jacked up new pads in and couldn’t work out why the piston wouldn’t just push back like the fronts. Did a bit of Googling then went out and bought a caliper wind back tool which still didn’t work after a lot of messing around (the circle plate didn’t fit my vehicle) and found several videos on YT talking about using software to retract the piston but eventually found your video. Thanks to you the car is now back on its wheels and usable again
-
We used this method on my neighbors Audi. Thanks for the video. appreciated.
-
Really good video helped me a lot. Just one thing to note before doing this job you should buy the small T30 screws and replace them as mine where really rusty and hard to take off
-
Best video I’ve seen so far! Thank you for sharing!!
-
very nice video. Saved me a lot of time. no need to get an ODB II to rewind the e brake.
-
Wish I would’ve seen this earlier today. Would’ve helped eliminate a world of frustration.
