I love how your pistons magically compressed themselves to allow the new pads to slide right in. I wish my calipers were that courteous. I had to get a special tool.

I'm about to replace all for my 2015 Q5 discs and set of pads this weekend. This tutorial came out at just the right time. Very clear and excellent video, great job.

Extremely thorough video! I changed my own brake pads and rotors by myself. Helpful video

Fantastic tutorial!! Was super straightforward, except the Pins!!! All 4 were super seized.

[pstecle]

Explained quite well compared to other videos I've seen

Great details and professional. No hacked steps. Really appreciate knowing the steps BEFORE doing the job. Thanks!

Awesome - thank you guys for this! Dealership wanted way too much for new brakes and rotors all the way around. I bought the kit from you guys!

[MarcosFerrer-wigh]

Thanks for the tutorial! I noticed my anti rattle clips were originally installed the other way round. I'm glad I caught this thanks!

How can you not trust a guy with an Audi/VW tattoo? This gentleman is the real deal. Excellent video! Thank you.

Great video, the trick to push the pads back. Spot on. Easy Peasey!

[tomacwoody]

Great video. I really like how often you "Go ahead"

[Kiss__Kiss]

Pretty awesome. Seems simple enough, "IF" steps are followed as shown. Thank You FCP Euro. In the future I'll look into upgrading my Front Brakes to this Brembo set.
Perhaps when I add a little more power to my B8.5 allroad.

Sure NOW you post a step by step video. I did this last Summer on my Audi 3.2L Q5 with parts from FCP Euro. It all went together well but this project was the thing that got me to pull the trigger on a Milwaukee 3/8 Impact M18. Dealer wanted $900 for the same service. Uuummm nope.
