Right Rear Caliper adjustment screw

firedude308QV · Mar 2, 2014

I have searched the forum and can't find info on this issue. Does anyone know if your turn the 4mm hex fitting which covers the adjusting screw (on inward caliper) clockwise or counterclock wise to loosen? My fitting is tight and I do not want to apply too much pressure, fearing stripping the fitting.
Any help would be appreciated.

Those inboard cover screws are normal RH thread (so CCW to loosen).

Get the Porsche aftermarket replacements with a large, external hex drive feature (not an easily strippable, small female hex drive):

Steve gave me the same advice a year or so back... and he is soooo right. I had to slot the old cover with a Dremel so that I could use a flathead screwdriver to get it off.
