Brake bias/compensator replacement bolts

Recommended Posts

Second question tonight...

 

Talk to me someone about brake bias - vr6

 

I know they are an ar5e to remove due to bolts corroding

 

My new shiney one in its box doesn’t have bolts supplied...aarghhh

 

I’m assuming the originals will be shafted by my mechanic in the process of getting it off

 

Can’t see the bolts referenced on my online ETKA (type) link and can’t find them referenced online anywhere through a google search

 

Any one know what they are, really cannot be bothered with another trip to VW. Last time I went the parts lad said “what’s a Corrado?!

I had to drill mine off. If I remember correctly I used some hexagon stud bolts and nylon nuts. Job done

Nothing fancy in the fixings

‘What’s a Corrado???!!!' - how funny...

 

I’ve had young kids ask me, but at least my local main dealer parts bloke has a Corrado himself and is pretty helpful.

 

Good luck with brake bias.

If you are careful and heat the body of the brake bias valve up with an oxy torch then you can tease them out in some cases. If your tech has a torch and the experience he may just save them.
