Information
Grinding applies only to vehicles with steel brakes. PCCB brake discs/brake shoes do not need to be ground down.
Grinding must be performed after setting the brake shoes to the basic setting.
The brake shoes must be ground down prior to calibration.
Notes
Each time the brake discs and/or brake shoes are removed and installed or replaced, the electric parking brake (EPB) must be ground down after first
setting the brake shoes to the basic setting. The electric parking brake will only function fully after it has been ground down and calibrated. This
involves driving the vehicle eight times from standstill to 10 km/h (6 mph) up to max. 20 km/h (12 mph) for a distance of 20 meters. If the distance in
meters is not sufficient for several consecutive cycles, you can perform a reset with the vehicle after every cycle and drive on the same stretch of road
several times!
The ]]Grind brake shoes[[ routine is initiated using the Porsche System Tester.
1. Select ]]Parking brake[[ in the control unit overview. Select ]]Maintenance/Repairs[[ ]]Grinding[[. Follow the instructions on the Porsche System
Tester.
2. Once the brake shoes have been ground down correctly, the EPB must be calibrated.
