    Hello all. Recently, I decided to replace the pads myself and roll the shields because they required it. So I got to work, when I screwed the sliders it turned out that they could not be tightened to the crossover. I stripped everything renewing all calipers and shields and it turned out that there was a broken thread on the switch. Someone advised me to catch them with screw glue. So I did, I bought CX80 RC42 glue. I put everything and these sliders pasted into the crossover, after many yesterday's attempts to brake is ok. But I'm afraid it won't last long and will it be safe?
    Is it possible to buy a used crossover and replace it but it is a lot of work and I need a car because I have 80 km to work.

    Type FS III terminals. You will see these on whether you will know what's going on.

    Of course only the crossover is replaced.

    Which you sponsored yourself. For me it is 15-20 minutes, unless the placenta by the way is a little longer.

    Not necessarily, guides with M10 thread are available - ream, thread and (almost) the original.

    It is better to mention, I suppose that for golf IV it will not be a big cost or at least you will be sure that the glue will not let go.
    I think my friend was talking about a yoke.

    In the event of a fatal accident through these combinations you can sit a little with no conscience.
    Hacks, steering, timing system, bearing bolts or head should not be repaired ;-)

    I would not put my hand to such "repair". After drilling, the M10 has little wall there, and the guides made at the turner are no longer ...

    Stop it, these "screws" only hold the clamp so that it does not fall out by itself, do not carry any terrible loads. I'm just surprised how you can break it - someone tried to force the askew. I close anyway.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around a user who encountered a broken thread on the crossover while replacing brake pads and calipers on a Golf IV. They initially used CX80 RC42 glue to secure the sliders, but expressed concerns about the longevity and safety of this repair. Responses varied, with some suggesting that replacing the crossover is the best option, while others mentioned alternatives like using M10 threaded guides or Helicoil inserts for thread repair. The consensus leans towards prioritizing safety over temporary fixes, especially in critical components like steering and braking systems.
