Probably like me, developed a vibration under light braking...

Result: Both front discs and pads replaced under warranty.

My fronts were knackered at 11,000 miles and I (well company) had to pay. Fault of OEM pads which groove the discs is you let them wear to the pad warning light. I think that's a design fault, but Audi didn't.
yup as said, i was getting vibration under breaking, had the pads and discs replaced foc

You could try dsgwagen,recently got front discs and pads delivered for £725,even came with vat receipt,not fitted them yet but brakes are generally very easy to do and have done most of my cars at some point,just need a reasonable toolkit.

Thanks for the quote. I might be interested in having these fitted, whereabouts are you based?
We are based just west of Manchester (inbetween the M6 and M60)
