stevie_d Posted April 3, 2008 Report Share Posted April 3, 2008 Howdy again folks, My brakes seem to be wearing a little, they're making that high pitched screech and grumbling a little under braking, so I assume that I may need new pads at the very least. Does the S3 have brake pad wear indicators or is there an easy way to see how much pad I have left. I can easily take the alloys off, but I'm not sure if the pads wear down to the holder or not, so am not sure how much pad there should be there really...

DukeDesmo Posted April 8, 2008 Report Share Posted April 8, 2008 the S3 has pad wear indicators But only on the front pads (at least that's what the dealer told me about my 3.2). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 But only on the front pads (at least that's what the dealer told me about my 3.2). If the new S3 is anything like the original one, they only have brake pad wear sensor on one front brake. Usually the passenger side Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
