Just fitted the £75 ferodo pads I bought from wallachie, everything was textbook on one side, a gorilla must have tightened the wee torx bolt on the other side as I managed to round it off!! Got it out with a thin punch, looks like a bus trip to audi tomorrow, I wonder how much they will charge me for 1 tiny bolt!!! :shock:

So who's this Graeme (wallachie) character? Lol.
Hi wallachie. So I take it you have a store that sells brake products?
And these £75 ferrodo pads are equivalent to the oem ones? Which ferrodo type are they and do they come with sensors? Cheers buddy

Sorry to jump in but what is the original thickness of the rs4 front discs? And what measurement is classed as scrap? As i have no record of the discs been changed at all an the car is at 80k now and needs a new set of pads. There is a lip on the discs but i have no problems or vibrations.
