BAD dealer service

[Taka Mizutani]

Drew-
You are flat out wrong in this case- the rear pads on our '99.5 A4tq
wore much faster than the fronts, needed replacement at something like
18k. The rear pads in our '01 Beetle wore out at around 48k, front
pads still have tons of pad left, never replaced.

It seems to be very common in late model VWs and Audis that the rear
pads wear faster than the fronts.

I have not seen this to be the case in the STi.

BTW, Bosch ABS 5.1 biases heavily to the rear to lessen brake dive on
initial braking, as does 5.3- ask Keith Maddock for elaboration on the
system itself.
