My emergency brake cable is rusted. Some one applied the emergency brake which I never used and now my rear wheels don't roll. The car has been sitting in my drive way. I tried to free up the wheels. I took the rear tire off and have never done rear brakes on this car. The caliper bolts are confusing. I have a Bentley manual for a Jetta 93-99 and it shows rear disc brakes. I tried to loosen the caliper bolt and it just turns. There seems to be a nut on the other side like a jam nut. The manual talks about a guide bolt and a self-locking bolt.It says always replace the caliper mounting bolts.They are one time only self locking bolts. Any help to a link on how work on this would be appreciated or advice,thanks.
