Where did you get the launch from ?

Do they not offer support for there tool. ?

If it cant retract the calipers on a A6 then its not worth having..

I got it from BBA in 2008.

I just want to be sure it does the job before wasting my time plus customers

Hi there, I used my X431 last year to help out a friend doing the rear brakes on an A6, sorry I can not remember the year of the car, however my update is same as yours, 2010 and August I think, it worked fine, remember to attach a battery charger to keep voltage at a sufficient level in the system.

Thanks for the info fellas but would you believe the brakes are fine on the rear,probably 15k left in them.The owner had it in an Audi dealership recently which told him they were required
