@@avmxr1 for real? The exact same one in the video? 😳😃

Not yet. But I’m going to service this car soon so I’ll do a video for you within the next month

Might be car model specific. This a class didn’t have sensors on the rear however you can see the insert for a sensor indicating that these pads are designed for implementation of the sensor. You car may differ

Seems like my car is stock Without sensors. Only one in right front wheel. Thanks for fast answear, nice tutorial :)

Apologies. Was trying to make the video concise. Try searching how to pull up assyst plus of Mercedes on RUclips. Best of luck

I can’t remember ngl

You shouldn’t need one

Thanks :)

You’re welcome ☺️

Hello Alex, I believe you’re referring to the disc. On some instances it’s worth jacking up your car and removing the tire. Not always but sometimes on the hub of the disc it will have the sizes engraved. Or alternatively you could measure it. Sites such as eurocarparts aren’t always accurate as they will hold different size discs and pads due to different engine variants and models of the same car. Generally speaking the larger the displacement of your vehicle the bigger the pads and disc. Also if you know your engine code for the vehicle you can verify the size that way. Hope this finds you well

You must have a piston rewind tool with the correct fitment otherwise you can damage the rubber seal which can cause an ingress of dirt into the calliper.

​@chiragbulsara thanks for the reply, turns out the piston is seized on both read calipers, do you know what I'd need to look for to upgrade to brembos, I have standard pads but the disc is damaged and then caliper needs to be replaced so I might aswell go to brembos now as I planned to anyway at some point. Thanks

@@cianbarriscale751 just to double check your callipers aren’t seized. Loosen the bleed nipple and then try to rewind the calliper, ensure the brake reservoir lid is open also. If both your callipers are seized you’ll have to order replacements preferably from eurocarparts or gsf. Can also try autodoc. Like wise you can get the disc from these sites also. I’d recommend changing pads also to compliment the new disc. You’ll need brake fluid, a pneumatic bleeder. Some decent tools to release the handbrake cable and reattach it. Best of luck

@chiragbulsara thanks but I think I'm gonna bring her to a mechanic, I'll give everything a go myself but not sure how much I want to mess around with the brakes, not something I want to make a mistake with and doing the calipers is a much bigger job then just the pads. Thanks very much tho.

I’d double check you’ve rewinds the calliper using the service mode, also ensure handbrake isn’t engaged

Thanks for your kind comment

Yes just a dpf delete along with a remap

Anything I can help clarify for you?

Agreed

No. this was simply just a brake pad and disc replacement. You will only have to bleed the brakes if the brake reservoir was opened or the brakes aren’t performing optimally.

17mm Allen key 0:20

13mm mate. You can get spare bolts from eurocarparts in the brake accessories section.

I’m not sure about that. It definitely helps if you have vcds as that may be an option

No once the car is put in diagnostics mode and the callipers are retracted you can switch off the ignition

instagram.com/p/Cbukcn4toRv/?igshid=NTc4MTIwNjQ2YQ== that’s how the set came from euro car parts. If you notice even prior to fitting the same orientation was present. If you have a look at the documented pictures all 4 pads are the exact same with sensor notches

@@chiragbulsara this set is for 1.5/1.6 engines

@@nieprofesjonalnieyes which were correctly supplied from eurocarparts as this model is an A180

Never trust carparts my friend...

😂haha thanks

Thanks :)

Yes it matters, you have to correct diameter for the correct pads otherwise you jeopardise braking performance, as the surface area of contact with the pad and disc has to be exact. Having an incorrect diameter will cause uneven wear, it will also be noisy because of the contact.

Yes. Prior to having the remap I would only achieve 500/550 miles per full tank which is roughly 55 litres. I now have a increased range and I’m achieving 550/600 miles per full tank with an additional 40hp and 80nM on torque. By removing the dpf and having a remap you can gain a considerable amount in mpg as there’s less restriction

Thanks for your comment. How did it go?

Great question. You don’t have to go back on the menu. As you get in the car you’ll have to press the brake to start the car which consequently compresses the piston. There’s also an electronic handbrake, if this is applied that will hold the position of the piston.

Thanks

Thanks ☺️

Hello Riropower. Ensure the slide pins are removed. You’ll see in the video where I pinch/depress the rubber housing of the slide pins to allow space for the pads to sit. I’d advise on spraying some brake cleaner and maybe turn the wheel so you have more access to the calliper

@@chiragbulsara Thank you for your fast feedback, indeed I didn‘t turn the wheel, will try later this weekend and applying your tips, thanks!

No stress. Let me know how you get on. You can always contact me on Instagram @chiggyservice

@@chiragbulsara Thank you, one of my mechanic friends took it on a lift to get a better look, turned out that the bottom slide pin was totally corroded that‘s why I didn‘t get it off 😄 Everything‘s changed now, thanks again!

@riropower glad you got it sorted in the end. Thanks again for your support.

No you don’t have to change the sensor every time. But what you will find is due to the brake dust and rust it will be difficult to remove and you could possibly break it when trying to remove it. The sensor is less than £5 and very easy to install. It can also be removed and installed without having to remove the calliper assembly.

Yes it’s had a dpf delete which consists of a new section from the turbo to the cat and back box. Noticeably noiser but also more free flowing and unlocked power with a remap

Thanks for the comment I’m glad it helped you :) Encourages me to make some more videos

It’s a 2012 TDi CEGA engine cr170

@@chiragbulsara you should see 230 hp with egr & dpf delete on the 2012 models jealous you’ve got the 2012 block

@@danielkelk2804 thanks I kind of regret not going for 230hp. I had so much fun in the remap for like the first 2 days then instantly regretted not going for more. At least the fuel economy improved 😭😂

Thanks bro much appreciated. Unfortunately I wouldn’t know. Would be best to contact your local dealership and ask for information and they can advise you best

@@chiragbulsara That's alright. I guess 75w90 synthetic may work.

What’s your car reg I’ll find out for you

@@chiragbulsara Mh14AM9673 This is car reg number You need vin?

@@1.9tdilove71 it’s 75W for you car, I checked using autodoc. You can also find other transmission/gear oils on there

Thanks ;)

indeed it was very golden but did have some metal shavings inside.

yes i got it remapped stage 1 to 205 hp and 430 nm torque. considerable increase in mpg on my commutes and full tank. was previously getting 49-55 mpg on a 40 mile commute and now 55-60mpg and also full tank mileage of 550-600 miles :)

also no smoke as its not overfuelling, only had dpf delete, its not straight piped.

Great question, technical information specifies that there must be 2.2 litres on transmission oil. There is no dipstick or visual gauge to see. its not advised to top up, as mixing aged oil with new oil can cause issues with lubrication. Best thing is to do a drain and refill, using the pump bottle shown in the video you can accurately fill the correct specified amount. Hope this helps.

According to UK. I believe mainly as emissions are a lot stricter here. Yours could possibly be 504/507. You may have a sticker in your engine bay indicating the best grade oil for your motor. Good luck 👍🏽

Just checked will be VW 507 from manufacturer spec

Ive been made aware of this issue previously, thanks for notifying me anyway. What year is your car? as the fabia in this video is the newer revised engine which should not have this issue. i understand your frustration anyways as im always checking the oil before and after trip, its concerning but a fun car all round

@@chiragbulsara its a 2010 cave model. I strongly believe the fault is in the turbo sling bearings. I think thats the weak link on this oil problem.

@@primozmarkovic4611 that would seem logical. Could it possibly be avoided with a larger oil cooler?

@@chiragbulsara no. Everybody is mentioning CTHE cars like don,t burn any oil. I am so curious what have they done to the engine, or a turbo unit. But anyway car runs great engine is smooth the power that comes from that little engine is just great. Can't say anything bad for the car, only that oil issue, which means topping up about 1000km 0.5l of oil is just hilarious then taking it for the service for oil change LOL

@@primozmarkovic4611 i completely agree, thanks for your valuable information.
