Title: Can OBDELEVEN retract the rear calipers to change pads/discs
Post by: Gnasher on 28 February 2019, 11:13
As per the title really. I need to do the rear pads and discs on my 2014 Golf GTI and wondered if it was possible to do this.

Also, will I still need a windback tool?

Done loads of front discs/pads but never rears, hence my confusion.

Ta in advance.

I'm sure I've seen somewhere that it can. Have you checked the OBD11 Facebook page?

I have looked on their forum, but it's probably the worst forum I've ever had the misfortune to navigate lol. Searched multiple times on different keywords with no success unfortunately.

I might expand my search to VCDS forums as it'll be in the same module, just the way to use the tool might be different.
