Disks replaced

Post by **Thorney** » Wed Jan 08, 2003 4:13 pm

Anyone else had front disks replaced under warranty?

Didn't know you could...

Mine need changing, but I thought I'd have to foot the bill (they are worn, not warped)

Mine are badly warped, I saw a couple on RS4.org got them replaced under warranty just wasn't sure there was a problem with them (assumed not).

Do you think the thrashing you gave them at Castle Coombe has got anything to do with it?

Well I just heard the original owner had them replaced at 4k as well

Perhaps it's time to upgrade then??

Those bright red calipers and drilled disks do look good

....then I could buy your RS4 calipers and put them on my S4

Eveyone's a winner!!

Thats exactly what I'm doing!

You interested in a brand new set of front RS4 brakes then?

Post by **toasty** » Thu Jan 09, 2003 11:46 am

Yeah could be.

If they would offer a significant improvement over the S4 ones.

Presumably though I'd need new disks because yours are warped (or were you going to have them replaced before the swap?)

If the price/ level of improvement struck a good balance, then yes I'd be very interested.

....I'm assuming of course that they'd fit behind my 17" Avus alloys?

AFAIK the RS4's are a big improvement over the S4's but I'm sure someone else can confirm.

The plan would obviously to get the disks replaced then sell the whole lot to you

No idea on price though

Post by **toasty** » Thu Jan 09, 2003 1:11 pm

Probably best to auction them to the highest bidder...

They've got to be worth a few hundred though I would think.

i thought they couldnt be fitted as the front struts were different?????

Post by **Thorney** » Fri Jan 10, 2003 10:05 am

Yeah I forgot to ask Scott at Autosport show that

We'd need to make sure.

The struts are swopped across when MoVits are fitted, otherwise you have to pay £600 for new ones

.
Only Problem is if you sell the car they must be sold on it.
