lubricant for assembling calipers and MCs

[Kneale Brownson]

Which lube, Konstantin?  There's a grease Audi specifies for the pins in
the carrier and there's a different lube for the inside of the parking
brake lever rod cavity.  I bought a tube of both from Carlsen Audi a couple
years ago.  Linda told me it would be a life-time supply of each, but she
didn't know I was so old my grandsons probably could use it for their
lifetimes.  It was $20-30 for the two tubes, which are the size of a large
tube of toothpaste.  They're G052150A2 Lithium Grease (for the parking
brake cavity, I think) and G000650 Lubricating Paste for the pins.
