I've got Brembo's they're bolted in place rather than a pin job (In other words they're fixed, not floating).

Thanks for the suggestion though

Check ur lower ball joints....The grease leaks out and causes a clunking noise....meant to be common problem on d2...ssss

Might be wrong but it is a relatively cheap fix....

Duffy, I have replaced all mine with Meyle HD bits, they bassically heavy duty versions of the standard parts. iirc they have a good warranty on them.

I did however use lemforderd (sp?) arb links, theese appear to be OEM with the audi rings ground off - they are completely identical except a small area of grinding where the badges used to be...

I wouldnt bother with audi ones on the cost basis and becuase i beleive the above two companies are equal too or better. I would avoid really cheap ones though, if its not a brand you have heard of ask on here, its not a job you want to do twice.

The guys are All German Parts will hook you up with some quality stuff, ask for a discount and they should knock a bit off too.

I assume your talking to Duffy? mines all new. weirdly my clonk has got less frequent! still waiting on my new poly ARB bushes from poland, will do a how too and a review when they turn up - might be a good little upgrade, might be a waste of time! we will see...
