  1. Hi and sorry for the late reply. my internet went missing and needed replacing. bit like my brake pad. I took it to bits and as i thought. 3 brake pads were present and 1 must have disintegrated. the backing was rusty to confirm the pic above. which created a few mil of space for the piston to then move out hence the pedal hitting the floor and the opposite side locking up, VW pads!. i can post a pic when i find out how., prob photo bucket. p.s tried to join tonight. i have no pay pal. is any other method of payment available thx craig

  4. Hello every1. Thought I would bring something to every1s attention. Tonight i was driving my vr6 home from work. Came off the A19 at 70mph of course. Entered the next housing estate to where i live at 30mph. Tapped the brakes to slow down for the oncoming chicane, and pedal hit the floor...! some or 1 of the wheels locked up and it skidded out of control for what felt like 5-7 seconds before stopping.....! the brake pedal felt normal when i let it off and pressed it again as i pulled over... when i stopped shaking. lol. i drove it home and googled this. http://www.passatworld.com/forums/68-b
