Clearing brake pad thickness

[Mutley]

I posted in the wanted for a new calliper as I thought my right rear was faulty, now I've got me vagcom and cable I'm posting here as its technical.

Brake pads have been checked and are 8mm not replaced long ago probably by the original owner but without following this procedure.

As a result vagcom is reading 3mm, I get a brake pads warning on the dash and a little yellow triangle.

I've tried the reset, I've tried adaption and telling it it's 8mm but still it won't clear.

Any ideas, I did get one that said disable epc but not sure how to do that ?

Still new to vagcom

I'm guessing you've gone through all of this:

Not too sure beyond that, but I think you have to open the caliper before you put the new thickness in, sure it took me a couple of goes.

I think it might of been a turn it off and turn it back on again because when i got in the car this morning it was fine.

I spend all day telling people to turn it off and back on again lol.

Cheers
