Why do yours look so much bigger than mine and mine are behind 17" wheels.

It's all in the angle of how you photograph it

Come photograph mine please, because they look small.

Does this work for non-brake caliper photos? Asking for a friend

Back it up terry and don;t take a picture dead on, it's gotta be at an angle

Tell you're friend it should work but if it's small to begin with it's gonna need a lot of help

?Confirming Macan brake line part number: 95B-611-776-A ??

Chris at Techna-fit says they will not be able to provide a SS line for 45-60 days. So I'm ordering the standard Macan flexible brake hose from Porsche and want to confirm its part number. Can anyone confirm the above number is the correct part number?
Thanks,
Bern

That shows up for me as the brake line for the cars with CCBs. I think you want this guy: https://www.sunsetporscheparts.com/oem-parts/porsche-brake-hose-95b611701e?c=Zz1icmFrZXMmcz1mcm9udC1icmFrZXMmbD0zMSZuPUFzc2VtYmxpZXMgUGFnZSZhPXBvcnNjaGUmbz1tYWNhbiZ5PTIwMTgmdD1iYXNlJmU9Mi0wbC1sNC1nYXM=

I rebleed the brakes pre track day coming up this weekend. They feel really good. RRG, some ABS stops and a good 30 psi bleed LF, RF, LR, RR is all it really takes.

I'm sure you covered this somewhere, but you post so frequently I couldn't find it via your profile:

How do you apply the RRG with the pistons still in the calipers? I might try to grab some and apply the next time I bleed mine

He's mentioned just lifting the dust boots, and cramming some under there.

Not the best method, but, I removed pads, removed caliper from knuckle, removed dust seals,, hung with a caliper hanger on control arm, put 1 pad in the caliper, gently pressed brake pedal, greased pistons (outsides seemed to always extend, so used a wood working clamp to hold the pad against them, so I could get the inside to extend out too), greased, put it all back together.

Not ideal, but it made a difference for me.

It was a little better than that. I went back and pushed the pistons out and THEN crammed some under there.

I'm not a savage.
