Hi Oli - yeah it seems a few cars have these pads and setup as attached from VAGCat, not covered on Audi pages that I can see so I am a bit blind. Ska says not too hard to do though. I took the guy out and showed him the bolts holding the current pads in, and he went "Ah.. mm" consulted the computer and came up with the right ones - which aren't the 'standard ones we normally keep sir'
Bit annoying as I wanted to do discs and pads together this weekend. Oh well
Seems Audi randomly put the brake setup they had on the shelf that week on these cars!
Still - my £69 for a set of pads seems ok, and they are Ferodo so can't be that bad for me to abuse. Still going to take it apart this weekend and check the discs - my aim is to reduce vibration i.e. I have warped discs! I hope.. in a way.
P.s. no idea of the Audi part number of the pads, just walked in and said 'give me some A8 pads please'!
