Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

Do you mean the caliper? The distance between the holes in the brake caliper for the two caliper bolts is exactly 130 mm. I know this because I made a drilling jig for a Helicoil thread. This distance is the same on my 986 and 997, so I guess the models in between have the same dimension. Edit: Caliper bolts torque to 85Nm If you look for a Brake master cylinder reservoir i asked Copilot. This ist the result, hth. Audi A4 B5 (ATE brakes) Audi A6 C5 (ATE brakes) VW Passat 3B / 3BG (ATE brakes) The reservoir with VAG part number 8E0 611 301 is frequently used in these models. However, the plug connections and the level sensor vary depending on the year of manufacture. There is therefore no guarantee of plug-and-play compatibility.
