Product Description
The Arrowhead Actuator Parking Brake Rear LH is a specialised component designed to control the electronic parking brake mechanism on the left-hand rear side of select Audi and Volkswagen models. This actuator is responsible for engaging and releasing the rear parking brake at the touch of a button, ensuring secure vehicle parking and compliance with modern safety standards.
This part is compatible with a range of Audi and Volkswagen vehicles, including models such as the Audi A3, Q2, TT, and Volkswagen Golf VII, Tiguan, Touran, and Passat B8. It is important to confirm your vehicle's model, year, engine size, and engine code before ordering to ensure correct fitment.
Common symptoms of a faulty parking brake actuator include dashboard warnings for the parking brake, failure of the electronic parking brake to engage or release, unusual noises from the rear brakes during operation, and inconsistent or weak parking brake hold. You may also experience intermittent function or a complete loss of electronic parking brake control.
If you notice any of these issues, it is advisable to replace the actuator promptly to restore safe and reliable parking brake operation. Always ensure the replacement matches your vehicle's specifications for trouble-free installation and performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of worn brake pads or brake components?
Common signs may include squealing or grinding noises when braking, reduced stopping ability, a soft brake pedal, vibration under braking, or the brake warning light on your dashboard. Because brakes are safety-critical, diagnosis and inspection by a qualified mechanic is recommended before replacement.
Can I replace only one side of the brakes?
Brake pads and discs are normally replaced as an axle set (both sides at the same time) to maintain balanced, even braking. Replacing only one side can cause the vehicle to pull when braking. Consult a qualified mechanic for guidance.
