Brake pad question?
Hey guys. Looking to replace the stock brake pads on my 07 997TT. Standard brakes setup on this car…no PCCB’s. Do you need to remove the front or rear calipers to replace the pads....or is it as easy as removing a pin and sliding the pads in/out?
<o></o>
Thanks in advance.

Front pads slide out and in.... rear calipers have to come off.

Never seems to amaze me how some of us are always gung-ho about doing our own maintenance. I would be doing the same exact thing if I was in your position.

Is there any DIY instructions for the front and rear pads? Pad changes are fairly easy on other cars but wasn't so sure about 997TT
