I'm sure it's a long ways off for people (especially us vin-less ones), but is anyone familiar with releasing the parking brake actuator at the caliper to change rear pads? Had tried to change the pads on my wife's old Tiguan, also with electric parking brake, and basically it was controlled by the BCM (or one of the other modules) and you were supposed to have a dealer do them as they need to access the module to back the parking brake motor out. I did find a work around where you just unplug the motor and apply 12v to it (had to swap +/- to get it to go the right direction). First time I ever needed a battery to do brakes, but that's the price of progress right?
Curious if there's gonna be a simple way around, or just do the hack?
