Yeah.....I've got vagcom/odb11 and i can play with the thickness, open/close the epb, do the test.

That's how i know the left is running way longer than expected.

I've tried various thicknesses of pad, but the error says left disc not reached which is curious as i know it does eventually get there.
I think i'm going to try and referb the old one again and swap that on and see what i get from it.
It feels like the two motors are out of sync or not recognising things.
My discs are on the thinner side (i'd swap but getting hold of a pair atm is probably tricky) and with new pads on that side they should easily compensate.
