What make of Brake Calipers

I have a 1977 Bay with a TV engine. And I'm servicing the Calipers. Does anyone know what make these ones are?

 

Vw audi , according to the marks

 

So probably the originals?

 

So probably the originals?

 

Yes original , what's the problem with them ?

 

Looks like Girling - connection in the middle?

 

The service kits fit the year not the brand

 

Thanks Joker

 

That was my concern

 

Hydraulics line in the middle yes

 

Hydraulic line connection point has no bearing on the make, but you can tell if it is Girling or ATE by looking at the brake pad backing plates, springs and pins, check out this diagram:

 

my ATE calipers were stamped ATE but no vw markings

 

Position of the pipe union may affect how long the small brake pipe is.

 

so the question is: Do my Callipers have part 8A or not; Answer No, so they must be ATE !

Another question: where did the diagram come from please? And do you have another one showing only the piston & seals assembly for the ATE model please?

 

Yes they sound like ATE never seen of anyone with a Girling Caliper....

The diagram is an original VW Microfiche from the most excellent ratwell site http://www.ratwell.com/technical/Microfiche.html#wheels

What are you trying to find in more detail than what is in the diagram? That's the most detailed I think there is.

 

This raises a question since I just replaced my discs and pads. I was given ATE type pins in the fitting kit, but they wouldn't fit so I put the originals back on which are presumably Girling type. They do have part 8a.

But...does this make any difference to the type of pads needed. It seems to stop OK.

 

from what I can find, the pads are the same
