Hello Everyone,
Here's what I'm interested in doing at the moment. I have a 2000 Audi A6 2.8 with 184,000 miles. Normally this would scare or worry car owners, but this car sounds great. I am the 3rd owner and bought this car in January of 2011. I've changed many parts for new as a preventative/proactive measure and almost always the parts that come off are original! I've worked my way to the front calipers and have sourced 2 sets of calipers. Both sets are from Allroads and in great condition. One set from a 2002 and one from a 2003. Currently, the car has single piston calipers. One set of Allroads are also single piston calipers and the other set are double piston calipers. Both sets of brakes are huge compared to the ones I currently have. I'm looking to replace the rotors because they have seen better days. The pads are also pretty much ready to go. The left caliper's pads are worn much more than the right side and this also has lead me to replace my current calipers.
Anyone out there already do a job like this? Any thoughts or recommendations as to which Allroad Calipers to use??
Many Thanks,
Tony
