Urgent A4 B6 brake problem
I am putting this here in the hope of getting a faster response, as I need to drive 160 miles in the car this afternoon.
As you know I recently changed the D3 for a B6 A4 Cabrio, thought it had an oil leak but that is ok now. Instead the smell is of brakes.
So I took a look at the pads through the wheel and saw the below issue with the outer pads on both sides of the car (see picture). I cannot get to the inside pads to check those.
The brakes do work, it drives fine and stops ok but the smell of hot brakes is a pain.
Obviously it needs new pads, discs are almost new (maybe that's a clue).
What would cause the pads to wear like this.
