Product Information

M14 Bolts (brake carrier to wheel bearing housing): 90 Nm + 90 deg [66 ft-lb + 90 deg] (use new bolts) Moreover, there are the construction applications of Torx. You can conceivably have an entire toolkit of Torx bits and have a hundred different uses for them. With triple square, you know what they are going to be used for.

Triple-square drive fasteners have been used in high-torque applications, such as cylinder head bolts and drive train components. The fasteners involved have heads that are hardened and tempered to withstand the driving torque without destroying the star points. They are commonly found on German vehicles such as BMW, Opel, Mercedes, Porsche and those from the Volkswagen Group ( Audi, Seat, Skoda, and Volkswagen).Don't know the MY for your Yeti but the parts diagrams for brakes on a MY2014 are here and will hopefully help.

The triple-square, also known as XZN, is a type of screw drive with 12 equally spaced protrusions, each ending in a 90° internal angle. The name derives from overlaying three equal squares to form such a pattern with 12 right-angled protrusions (a 12-pointed star). In other words, three Robertson squares are superimposed at a successive 30° rotation. The design is similar to that of the double-square—in both cases, the idea being that it resembles a square (Robertson) but can be engaged at more frequent angles by the driver bit. These screws can be driven with standard Robertson bits. The views expressed herein are those of the individual contributors and not necessarily those of BRISKODA or SKODA. Where are they used? Most commonly, Torx screws can be found in motorcycles, automobile, bike brake systems, computer systems, hard disk drives, and consumer electronics. So, they are fairly common these days.

They're known by the Americans as "Triple Square" or VAG as ZXN and are used as they can handle higher torque before camming out. Cam-resistant. Anyone who has used a traditional screwdriver more than a few times has likely experienced cam-out. It can be frustrating in the moment and make removing a screw that much more difficult. Torx is great at reducing cam-out, making for an easier overall removal experience.

"The triple square, also known as XZN, is a type of screw drive with 12 equally spaced tips, each with a 90 degree angle. Its name derives from overlaying 3 equal squares to form such a pattern with 12 right-angled tips. Common sizes are 6, 8, 10, and 12 mm. Triple square drives are used in high torque applications, such as cylinder head bolts and drive train components. Triple square fasteners are commonly found on German vehicles such as Audi, BMW, Mercedes, Porsche, and Volkswagen." Sizes are M4, M5, M6, M8, M9, M10, M12, M14, M16, and M18. Despite the similar naming scheme to metric fasteners, there is no correlation between the name of the size and the dimensions of the tool. When it comes to the automotive world, they are very similar. Both are recommended for high-torque scenarios. Both are built to be durable and stand up to the constant pounding that a lot of torque can deliver to a part. Hook up the VCDS system and retract the EPB piston using the instructions found here ( http://wiki.ross-tech.com/wiki/index.php/VW_Passat_(3C)_Parking_Brake). Heed all warnings. They ain't messin' around. I'm aware that some people have been able to remove the rear caliper with a VCDS system but that seems extremely risky.

Advantages of Torx

Resistance to camming. One of the biggest benefits of the Torx bits is that they resist cam-out better than a traditional Phillips or flathead would. Cam-out is where the screwdriver slips out while turning the head. Repeated cam-out can damage the screw head, making it difficult to use going forward.
