Rear Caliper Release Springs

[Saint Ibiza]

Just an extra, on phoning around the part numbers they told me were:

V7H0 615 295 A

V7H0 615 296

I originally asked for V7H0 615 295, but they told me this was off a Transport and was around £15! The others come in at £2.09+VAT, so sounds about right.

Thanks for the part numbers I have now ordered mine, should collect tomorrow.

Yep that sound about right ànd will certainly do the job for you. Have you managed to collect ànd fit?

Just like Pew said, Chino quoted the parts I got but just to confirm

V7H0 615 295 A and V7H0 615 296 both at £2.09.

They seem to work a treat so far! Only took a few minutes to get on, totally agree the handbrake feels much more positive.

Got mine on order through my local Skoda dealer!

Definitely, need to get this stickied in the FAQ

 

[CupraRmark]

Ordering mine tomoz my handbrake doesn't feel positive at all....

whats the difference between those 2 part numbers. Are they handed?

Funnily enough I read this thread and then we had a load of snow. I released the handbrake and it felt really loose, obviously wasn't full releasing, and my economy has plummeted. This is on two new calipers that are only a few months old too. It seems to have cured itself for now, but I think these release springs will have to be ordered!

In a word YES - one is the mirror image of the other, now remember to have a look at any picture to make sure you fit them on the correct side.

I did this just before xmas as I had 1 caliper stick for a while - sorted everything out for only a few quid
