Just a quick update on this.audi uk got back to me and basicaly said go f##k yourself.they had been in touch with Audi slough who are adamant that they was bedded in correctly even though I can actualy prove they did no more than 2 miles whilst in there possession and as bolton Audi are saying the c...

I picked my car up from Audi on Friday whilst awaiting a call from a manager,jumps in the car and noticed it had a complimentary wash without my requesting it,(I actualy forgot to tell them not to let the monkeys loose on it with there brillo's),lets the handbrake off and.............clunk when I se...

Just looking through all my paperwork and something else has occurred to me.it was motd on 16/01/15 at a mileage of 21293.it was serviced and the brakes replaced on 29/01/15 and the mileage was 21303,now after reading all the threads on brakes I gather the official bedding in process of the discs/pa...

Personaly I haven't seen any bluing,the previous owner told me that's what he was told by Audi slough,so I take that with a pinch of salt as they don't even recognise wet drc shockers on a service.lol

Must be the driving style causing problems

Well my driving style must be similair to the previous owners,he went through 3 sets in 5000 or so miles and I have just gone through a set in 1500 miles.

I do leave the handbrake off when I park it up,however that's just going to have the effect on the rear brakes,the ones causing my wobble are the front ones. The pads was changed every time the discs have been changed.the callipers have been inspected and found to be ok. The tech has felt the vibra...

The discs are not the "root" cause, as the car has had 3 sets and the same things happened again Calipers faulty ie distribution of the brake pads pressure and evenly Alignment of disc to hubs or calliper to discs Yes,I would agree entirely with that,do you fancy a job at Audi,they could do with so...

The service advisor informed me that the pads was still like new with less than 10%wear

It the tech doesn't know what is causing the judder, how does he know new discs will cure it ? If Audi UK state that all new parts fitted by Audi come with a warranty and you have not exceeded the time frame or misused or abused the product within that time frame then my understanding is that they ...

Well a customer services manager will be calling me within 72 hours as its been escalated from staff,anyone anyone tips how to put a case forward for replacing with ones that don't vibrate. Am I being to expectant that such expensive items should last till at least out of warranty,or indeed should t...

Fair enough if these was old brakes but the fact they are only 3 month old and done less than 1500 mile makes me feel kind of pissed of at audis attitude. Is ceramics the only upgrade for these? What about the later wavy discs,are they a straight swap?do they wear better or are they prone to driver ...

Rather than block up the thread about brake judder I thought I would just start another that's specific to me. My cab is currently at Audi bolton getting diagnosed for brake judder,anyhow the tech rang me earlier and advised yes there is a judder,but they have no idea what is causing it,however he k...

Just dropped it off,spoke with the advisor and he assures me this is a unusual problem for a rs4,lol. He also confirmed that even though its had 3 sets on in the last 5/years 6000 miles they wouldn't be covered on warranty because the last set was fitted free of charge as a goodwill gesture. So look...

I was thinking that there maybe parts warranty on these,skimming would obviously be a good option should there not be.
But with them being less than 3 months old and not even covered 1500 miles I think a skim would certainly lose any kind of warranty if indeed there is one.
