Brakes

Question to all 4.2 S4 owners...

What do you think about the standard brakes? Owners of B5 S4's don't tend to rate the standard brakes, I just wondered if Audi had made a better job on the newer cars.

Thanks

Have owned B5 and B6. B5 brakes crap, B6 brakes good.

What is the spec of the B6 S4 front brakes please?

345mm x 30mm vented non floating disc with a floating caliper similar to the standard B5 RS4 caliper. AFAIK

I was wondering if it would be a budget upgrade for a standard B5 S4????....

Fully agree with Merlot

Seconded. The B6 brakes have far more feel, bite harder, whilst still being nicely progressive, and fade far far later than those on the B5 after some persistent thrashing. Quite sharp at first, but you soon get used to (and come to rely on) them.

OK, next question then... anyone upgraded and have the stock parts sat in their garage looking for a new home??
