For new front disks from audi and it seems there are no pattern parts?
Am I on crack just considering paying for these - options please?!
£400
I'm no expert, but my mechanic says you can get pattern rears for no more than £100 each which are just as good - the front ones are much bigger and thus more expensive and no-one does a pattern part. My car isn't a plus.
I just picked them up anyway - was £420 inc. VAT asked for a discount / feined heart attack and got them for £380....
Now I just need to pay to get them fitted....

I don't think you want to remove the caliper. SHould be easy enough to change the disks without.
Is that £400 per disk?

I'd of bit there hand off for £400 for front brakes, imagine paying less and hoping to brake safely from high speed. Sad really, RS6 ownership requires car maintenance cost thresholds to be lifted to an elevated level... What do people expect, performance car experience for fiesta money??? There are of course those elements where because its "RS" the price rises disproportionately.
