Gone for the Touareg 4 pots then found a company that do a kit on mounting bolts discs pads wear sensors and hoses basically making it plug and play. They have an offer on at the moment with 15% off so the kit comes in a 229.

So that includes the discs aswell then?
 
Yes, on eBay £238 for the 350mm kit, place is Southampton
Going to go with them I think, £268 for performance pads, the discs are from Mtech which I use on BMW
 
That's great, thanks mate. Spent big to keep an eye on.
 
It's not bad deal

Discs are about £100
Lines £50
Bolts £35-45
Pads £60

Might as well have them sent by them ready with discs to fit

Just losing pressure somewhere....hopefully when parts arrive tomorrow all will be well again. But nothing is ever that simple with an Audi.....
 
Well after a little cleaning they are practically spotless....

I just wish I could've gotten to my blasting cabinet at the far end of the garage so I could have given them a quick blast on the outside to bring back the aluminium lustre instead of the dull horrible appearance.....I suppose that's the price you pay for using something so caustic on aluminium.

Yep, i get it
Still have my e46 330d, lowered, 19s, red leather, exhaust, Map and uprated ARBs

Got the Audi last month said I will leave it standard. Got it and didn't like the way it drove compared to BMW.

4 weeks later H&R springs, RS4 ARB, set of genuine 19s, spacers, remap and parrot so I can stream music

Ordered calipers and want to do exhaust boxes as well as brake upgrade

Used to be a plasterer Dani....not worked for a few years now due to ill health.

was the ill health plaster related carl, I only ask as my old dad used be a proper plasterer back in the 50's early 60's when all the covings and decrotive stuff was done all by hand, none of the modern pre-fab stuff, not many around now that can do the hand made stuff properly, he died a few years back through ill heath directly attributed to plastering back in the 50's - 60's.
 
Unfortunately no it's not related to the plastering......it's more the mental side. Long story short I contracted toxoplasmosis from a bad Chinese which screwed the few brain cells I had up and the the Ex-Mrs finished me off when we split.

In a bizarre way I really like that colour, its a bit out there for me but still love it, would look great on black B7's.

Cheers pal. Yeah it's a bit different but worth a gamble as if I fit them and don't like them it's a lick of paint. I just seam to see nothing but red and blue brakes maybe the odd yellow I like to be different lol

Thought I would split the vacuum actuator today that I removed which was giving me limp mode and this is what I found so hopefully this the cause.

 
Looks just like mine did soldier apart from yours has a much bigger hole in it.

The new one looks like it's made out of clear silicone.
