  • Allroad brakes squeaky like a mofo

    In the last week or so the AR brakes have been squeaky life a mofo on us.. especially during slow speeds/stops.. like deerfoot crawling start stop kinda crap

    its driving me nuts.. not sure if they just need to be hosed off since the car hasn't been washed in a few weeks since its so dirty out..

    i've even tried bedding them in a few times but doesn't seem to help

    i swear the fronts are even sighly warped as i seem to get slight wobble under breaking doing like 130 and then braking..

    cpo time maybe

    Are they OEM or replacement parts? It would take a lot of heat to warp the OEM front rotors. Maybe the front pads have a glaze on them. Its a lot of work, but you could always remove the pads and scuff the surface with 80 grit sandpaper.

        wobbles can be from snow and ice buildup.. Id say wash the car and see if anything changes

              that sounds like warranty work to me

              audi can do that when i bring the car in for coilpacks

              i'll ask for an s5 loaner for the day maybe.. sounds like a swell time indeed

                AR front rotors aren't as beefy as S4 rotors, and are relatively easy to warp. If you're getting wobbling while driving or accelerating, then it very well could be ice/snow buildup, but if it's wobbling during braking, then it could easily be warped rotors, especially if the wobble is occurring when braking at high speeds. Either way, it sounds like warranty work to me.

                  I got my letter for this. What's the follow up? I had a coil pack die last summer. I want my goddamn money back for those faulty fuckers.

                  I have to call Audi. They think they deserve my business, despite my indy shop charging only 90/hr for labour.

                    yea audi will reimburse for them.. but i think it depends on the year of your car if so i'll take my S4 back too and get them all replaced for free too..
