My problem with this stems from dealing with Ate South Africa. I had
the international or US part numbers for the proper rotors for the
Audi 200. They didn't know what I was talking about. They seem to
build their own part numbers. I hope FAG is different. Apparently
we have an SKF bearing quality problem in this country. I have my
CAR magazine and am going to try any bearing supplier I can find
listed. I think AutoQuip supply some international brands.

Would live to know the bearing manufacturer part number for the
Audi 200 FWD auto with MC 10-valve from 1988-1990 if anyone has
the number.
