  2. Look through the brake disc opening with a small lamp to check that the end of the cable (hexagon) is seated correctly in the Quickfit.
  3. Fit the screw plug on the brake disc.
  4. To fit the brake cable correctly into the guides on the underbody and on the rear axle carrier, the brake cable must be taut. To do this, tug on the brake cable, against the direction of travel, in the cable sleeve area (thickening) on the rear axle carrier. This gives clearance between the brake cable and the cardan shaft.
  5. Perform a function test.
  6. Install cover in the footwell → Installing cover under dashboard .
