Hello,

"Because I'm repeatedly getting questions about this topic, but I haven't personally encountered this type of brake system in a service environment yet: how does the electric parking brake work on a Passat when changing the brake pads?"

Best regards, Rainer.

Evening!
I haven't actually made it myself yet, but it should work like this:

guided troubleshooting -> retract piston.
replace the pads.
Advance the piston and perform initial adjustments.

Okay, I'm ready. Please provide the German text you want me to translate into English.
