BUMP!!

Brake fade is still happening, not sure what to do really. The brakes are really good up to 50mph ish, but above that.....they do give rather alot of fade. Annoying. Ive even had the pads out and discs off again, wire-brushed them using the drill & used brake cleaner. Basically the...

I will give this a try, maybe it might be that they are not bedded in enough??? any idea where & how much there mintex 1144's are???? P.S. Just got some New PZERO's on and i'm quite impressed.

^^Good (in a nice way) At first i thought "sh1t......my wheels comming off lol". I wonder why is seems like i'm getting brake fade? I have also noticed that they do get really hot, you can feel the heat off them when you stand near the front wheels.....they smell too...but i think that...

Many thanks James!!!!

I recently upgraded my brakes. I got some EBC Grooved discs & a set of greenstuff pads. Now i let these 'bed in'...the instructions said to give around 300 miles i think, and i went easy for around the 700-1,000 miles mark. Now say i'm doing 80mph on the dual carridgway, and comming up to...

I would like to know what ET my wheels are....should it say on them? If not is there anyway that i can measure them? What is the ET Measured in any idea? I'm looking at getting wider tyres this time round, but i need to know what ET mines are so i can check that they wont catch.

Right ok, got some piccies of the rims, gave them a wash down....personally, if i was made to make a decision on them, i would prolly say they are genuine, cause they just seem to look slightly different than my reps. Heres the pics: Any ideas? I'm going to put them in the trade...

Surely someone has to have atleast SOME info??? I'm waiting to get a response on here before i buy any parts etc.....help a brovvver out here!! Cheers

Hi All, Well, i noticed this week that when apply 'medium pressure' on the brakes, from about 25mph down to a stop, there is like a deep groaining noise from the brakes on 1.9TDI Sport. I dont think that this noise is comming from the back brakes as i only replaced the pads in august, and we...

Right ok, so at the weekend i'm going to get them out and give them a good cleaning.........and have a mooch.......Maybe if i go to audi looking at "buying" a set of O.E.M's and see what stamps they have on them.

hmmmm...... Ive already got Reps on my car - thing is there is nothing to say that all reps with have this stamp on them, so how the hell am i meant to know? surely someone knows what to look for?......and no, Sadly, Carol you C-A-N-T help....hahahahahahaha

yeah thats what i was thinking it could either mean: 1. These are not O.E.M, they are reps or 2. There are O.E.M, Not Reps... hmmmm confusing? Someone surely can clear this up for me????

Hello all, now i'm wondering i have a set of 19" RS6 wheels (spare ones) and on the inside they have stamped on them "Not O.E.M Reps". Does this mean that they are orignals and not replica's? thanks peeps *thumbs up*
