Hi Joe I have found Brembo BBK with 6 pot calipers and 345mm discs, front, for £3166 and a Revo BBK with 6 pot calipers and either 355mm or 380mm discs for £2035, these kits come with everything you need for a direct bolt on application and new hoses as well. Looking at used prices of disc and caliper combo's that may fit are starting from around £1500, that is for RS4 discs and calipers, but doesn't come with anything else and I am not 100% sure if they will fit, RS5 ceramic discs and 8 pots are going used from around £3000 mark, again not 100% sure they will fit, both used sets would require a carrier bracket making or obtaining for the calipers. It is looking like I will go down the BBK route just on a cost basis and the fact they are direct replacements without needing to modify anything. Cross drilled and grooved discs and better pads is an option also. Thanks TooTired T

Hi all I am wanting to upgrade my Q5 brakes for bigger ones, I have priced up some big brake kits from Brembo and Revo, but I am just wondering if anyone knows if any of the higher spec Audi discs and calipers will fit? Thanks for any advice or info. TooTired

Hello I currently have a 2009 Audi A5 and have changed the front wheel bearing today, everything has gone fine until I tried to get the rear bolt through the front lower control arm, I can get the bolt through but the bush/arm and the mount are slightly misaligned and I cant seem to get it that extra few mm, the bolt is tapered but not sure if tapping with a hammer will align it, any tips/ideas what to try? With the rearward lower control arm ball joint I just cant get the taper through far enough to get the nut on, again any tips/ideas would be greatly appreciated. It is on axle stands currently on my drive, don't have a lift or anything like that either. Thanks in advance for any help or advice. TT
