Reattach the wheel and lower the car. Pump the brake pedal until firm before testing the brakes on the road.
1. Raise the car onto an appropriate jack stand and make sure it is secure and stable up there. Remove the wheel to reach the caliper.
2. Loosen the hydraulic brake line where it connects with the caliper. Don't completely remove it yet.
3. Remove the caliper from the carrier by removing the bolts. If they are guide pin bolts, hold the pin in place with an extra wrench while removing the bolts. You can now disconnect the caliper from the hydraulic line.
4. Thread the replacement caliper onto the hydraulic line, tightening it by hand. Fit the caliper onto the carrier, attach the bolts and tighten the hydraulic line.
5. Bleed the braking system. Connect the bleeder valve to a bleeder bottle's hose, open the valve and push the brake pedal to remove air from the system.
6.The Volkswagen Beetle has always been a contrastive type of van, still in its revival. The development of removing and replacing a brake caliper on a Beetle is slightly clashing, chiefly how the caliper relates to the hydraulic brake line. It actually may be simpler than replacing a caliper on other models.
