  1. The rear wheel brake calliper was stuck to the brake pad yesterday when departing in my Passat hybrid GTE. The car had been standing unused for 2 days. There was a strange noise and a consistent thudding coming from the wheel so I stopped and returned home.

    Any comments?

      Thanks. The car is with VW Battersea. They’ve done that and have ordered new calliper/pad from VW. The car is still within it’s warranty (2 years old, 12,500 miles) but VW refused to pay. Battersea kindly went into battle and achieved a 70/30 compromise with them. That’s Battersea/VW, I think.
