They quoted me $8k for standard brakes on my RS5. Bought all the parts myself for $2600 and did it myself ????
I'd like to add brake jobs are fairly simple too. The front pads in my 2016 Q5 were the easiest of any car I've ever owned.
I put Bosch QuiteCast pads and rotors on mine a year ago and have been very happy.
Brakes and rotors at 30K miles??? I just replaced mine on my 2016 A4 at 75K and the still had plenty of wear left. Yes, I drive aggressively too.
I know funds are low, but get a quality pad. I prefer Bosch Quiet-cast. Long lasting, no squeak/noise/vibration.
I just did mine at 60k I bought Bosch and they’ve been great.
Mymotorworld has Bosch front and backs at around £45 for pads they also have textar a good brand for a little more. I wouldn’t bother with the other cheap pads given the acceleration you can get with the car.
My S4 needed brakes at around 30k. I had a couple dealerships price it out and it was about that.
1.5 years ago a client was offered brake pads only with a 1 year warranty, no guarantee against noises or pulsations, or brake pads and rotors together with a 3 year warranty against noises and pulsations. They opted for the 1 year option on their fancy 2017 Audi because the rotors were stupid expensive.
they're Audi pads, with Extra squeek!
