2011 Cayenne S Rear Brake Replacement

[Goblin]

I am about to do rear brake job for my '12 Cayenne S. Where are you getting instructions on how to do that, alldatadiy or somewhere else? My rotors appear to be OK, and have never been cut, whats is a standard practice for this car, should I replace them as well, or just replace the pads?

you don't need to change rotors unless they are down to 28mm min thickness.I will send you a PM with instructions for pad change.

Hello folks, Can someone please tell me how to get the workshop manual instructions for changing the front and rear brakes on a 2011 cayenne. I have been surfing for two hours and this thread is the only one I found for a 2011 or newer car. I am new to the Cayenne DIY scene and will start to contribute once I get deeper into repairs. Thank you

If you're looking for a writeup for doing just the pads there is this over at rennlist. It has excerpts from the manual.

Thanks Tom. That write up is helpful. Anyone have the torque specs. I found the torque specs for the panamera but not a 2011 Cayenne 6

Hi Samak

just changed my own pads and rotors. the torques for caliper bolts is 85nm and rotor fixing screw is 10nm.  I have the workshop manual, if you need more details send me a pm and I will send you a copy
