    Red face Torque Specs

    I’m replacing the front pads and rotors on our 2018 Arteon and would like to know the torque specs for the 21mm calliper carrier bolts and the 13mm guide pin bolts?

    Any advice or tips would be appreciated as well

    21mm = 200Nm
    13mm - 35Nm

    Here is an excellent DIY tutorial; Volkswagen Mk7 Golf R Front Brake Pad and Rotor Replacement DIY - YouTube

    Are you doing Pads & Rotors, or just the pads?

    Original VW rotors and pads. As I live in the country I didn’t want to chance any fitment issues with non genuine parts as the nearest parts supply is 3 hours drive. However now that I know the original parts are branded TRW I might go TRW aftermarket next time.
