I’m still quite new here. I have a 2013 Jetta sport wagon TDI.
Right now I’m at 80,000 miles. Up until now all of the routine service was done at the dealer. I plan on doing my own maintenance going forward.
I saw some interesting videos on the Mityvac products, including model which is designed to bleed out brake lines. I’m planning on buying it because it looks like it works well. My next question does anyone know what he bleed sequence would be for the wheel calipers?
First of all can anyone recommend a good source for a service manual that I can buy for this vehicle?
Is there a general rule on the mileage life expectancy for the factory brake pads on these vehicles? I have the dealer do the 70,000 mile service and didn’t mention anything about the brakes. So I’m assuming that they’re still pretty good. Is there a recommended part number or supplier for either the brake pads or the calipers for this vehicle ( when I actually need to replace the pads)?
Thanks!
