    Help Please S4 B8.5 - Shaking under braking only in sport at high speed

    Hi there. Got a real head scratcher, could do with some help/advice. I have a 2013 S4 B8.5, and on certain occasions I have a shaking/shuddering when lightly braking at speed.

    Brake upgrade

    I'm running a '97 2.8 Quattro, mainly as a track car, and it could really do with better brakes. Its currently got the 280-ish mm discs on the front, but obviously far bigger will fit inside 17" wheels I normally run. I guess the question is either.... 1 Which later (fairly common) model could...

It's a 2005 with no DPF from manufacture and it's had a REVO map, she goes :) Managed to get the Front S4 Brake setup from a breaker on eBay for £200, with everything included to carry out the job. I am...

    Braking.. What do I need?

    So, I have a 3.2 V6 Cab Quattro. It's hard to work out looking at all of these sites that tell you to enter your reg so you know what you need. Then it presents me with about 4 different brake disc sizes. It looks like it might be 345mm's however if I'm wrong then they won't fit on the carrier...
