brake question

[Marta Mike]

plan on doing the brakes for a friend on his mk4 VR and just wanted to make sure the procedure is pretty straight forward. I have heard on some cars where after doing the front, people not being able to get the rear caliper back in, so they had to release the bleeder valve a little? Anyone have this problem on their mk4? Just seeing if i need to bleed the brakes too.

on my mk3 vr6 i had to push and turn the piston to get it back in. My Bently manual said i needed a specialty tool but i got around that

Big C clamp. Lol. I use mine to press in my pistons when I do my brakes... I know doing the rear brakes can be a little more difficult, but its not too bad, should take a couple hours to do all 4.
