Hi,

2007 turbo 50k miles

I have a squeal from the parking brakes, in low speeds, and its annoying. Reading and searching here, leads me to suspect that the retainer springs might be broken/loose. I will try to get the rear wheels of today and check the springs from the back of the discs (without removing the callipers and discs).

But my question, if I take the brake assembly apart I rather replace shoes etc. But I can't find the retainer springs as separate items to order anywhere?

Are they included in the shoes (and no one mentions them) or how do I get them? Pelican parts lists pretty much all other springs as separate items. Sun coast and Sonnen don't seem to list anything related to the shoes...

I assume the shoes are ok (it's not a fwd hatch that has been trashed by some 18y anyways) but I suspect the spring assembly being up for a replace anyways.

The parts are cheap, so I want to change all since brake service is a dirty and not very fun assignment.

Found the PET online so I want 99735274101 its $17 at sonnenporscheoemparts.com will try to find it closer to home...
