Have just bought an Audi Allroad. Really happy with the car but took it in for an Audi inspection and it turns out the brake discs are 70% worn at the front and 90% worn at the back so I need a new set of pads and discs. Audi have quoted me something like £1000 which seems very steep. Anyone know where I can get this done much cheaper?? The independent dealer offers a 3 month parts a labour "warranty" but when I spoke to them, all they said was "bring it in and we'll have a look at it".....my concern is that they'll just do the bare minimum and I'd rather the job was done properly. How it passed to MOT I'll never know!

Aaa parts available at Euro Car Parts. ATE OEM parts. A VAG independant. Where abouts do you live. £1000 is just grazy. Regards Peter

As a comparison
My boy's 06 BMW 5 - new disks and pads @ BMW specialist using genuine parts £700 last month. He also needed 4 tyres @ nigh on £900 - 35,000 out of the set was not bad but @£225 a corner it was a dear month!

It passed an MOT because they probably dont need doing. Take it for another MOT and see what they say.
|
I can find the new discs and pads online for about £300, how much would it cost to fit them? Also, if the brakes and discs need replacing do I need to order any additional parts?
|
Get anti squeal paste they are a doddle to fit but check the are worn first I would not trust a main dealer as far as I through them.
|
Also, if the lower near side suspension links are said to be "knocking", what parts do I need to order? Thanks
