[V8] Super Low Mile 5K

[Scott Justusson]

 I still routinely service a mint 85 5000S front wheel drive automatic.  G54 single piston front calipers, drum rears.  Point of clarification, UFO in the US are found on 1991 200 and v8 only.  There was a service advisory Audi issued that basically said, good customer bitches enough, swap to G60's.  That was a 4500USD parts swap back then. Years ago I had a very early VIN 92 S4 that also had UFO, that came into me for the swap to G60's.  Audi AG used UFO applications in Europe on S4 and V8 through the 1994m.y.

UFO Brakes were only used on the 1991 200TQ 20V and the 1990 and '91 V8Q.


'85 type 44's had the same front brakes as every other 5K through the
model life.

BCNU,
Experience is the name everyone gives to their mistakes.
