New power stop ceramic z17 front brake pads
I also swapped out the pads and rotors with Powerstop Z36 Truck and Tow carbon fiber ceramic pads and drilled and slotted rotors. They turned out to be fantastic, especially with towing in the mountains and the Nebraska Sandhills. Highly recommend!
Samme oplevelse havde jeg. Pris for skift af bremser og klodser p\u00e5 A6 2017 for et par \u00e5r siden. Pris hos Audi 8000kr eller dero mkring. Smed p\u00e5 autobutler og fik en pris p\u00e5 2500kr
I had a brake job done a few months ago for the A4 with Audi for 1000 EUR. Just got the quote for the same job on the Q7 and it is 2300 EUR.
I picked up some Power Stop pads (Z23915B and Z231095) back in 2016 and they are still going strong. I wouldnt say they are "low dust", but they do seem less than OEM. They seemed to be a bit more bite than my OEMs.
I got Powerstop for my 2015 Sequoia and absolutely love them. Can’t recommend them enough.
I have used powerstops basic kit on Amazon for years now and had no problems. They say they're a "street upgrade" but they're just good quality pads and rotors.
I did power stop drilled slotted with carbon ceramic pads but I got the labor for a good deal , or if your handy they Work great and look nice .
As a good example, we were surprised to learn that the brakes were shot at just 33k miles. A quote to replace everything with OEM was insanely expensive... around $6k if I recall correctly.
Ditching my 2024 SQ5 for something without throttle lag and brakes that you have to press through the floor to engage. Audi says “drives as designed” and nothing they could do so I’m out.
