golt Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I am after some new discs and pads for my motor. I have been looking about and have found a few including the following on ebay: Brake Kit I was wondering if anyone had any experience with these? Any other recomendations would be greatly appreciated. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SamD Posted March 3, 2007 Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 What is the car Mike? Are you looking for uprated ones? If so have you considered S4 brakes? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golt Posted March 3, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2007 I've got a 2000 plate A4 1.9tdi Avant. I was only looking for a replacement to the standards as they feel a bit worn. I have only had the car 2 months, and last night driving home I had to brake suddenly and they felt a bit weird. Not the most technical of descriptions I know, but it certainly felt like the pads were worn as there was a metal on metal type noise and some feedback through the pedal. I hadn't thought about S4 brakes, how much are we talking for an upgrade to these? Cheers, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TD1MAN Posted March 4, 2007 Report Share Posted March 4, 2007 If S4 are beyond your means I'd recommend greenstuff pads with a good disc from either german french swedish or eurocarparts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golt Posted March 5, 2007 Author Report Share Posted March 5, 2007 Cheers for that. I have been looking about and there were some Mintex pads on ebay for not much. I will have a scan for Greenstuff tonight though. Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quattrophenia Posted March 6, 2007 Report Share Posted March 6, 2007 Rottenbend... Yes - is what I mean.... will they fit on a December 2005 (B7) S4 Avant? The calipers I have at the moment are standard issue silver with no decals. Is it a big job to change? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
