_Rupert_ Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Does anyone have information on the wear limit of the RS6 pads? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Wear limit? Do you mean how long they last? BTW, does anyone know the difference between the RS4 and RS6 caliper as they look amazingly similar. Is it just a case that one sit higher than the other? Or are the different sizes / dimensions?

_Rupert_ Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 I would like to know the minimum thickness as specified. I was told mine were "metal to metal" when they were not. The warning light wasn't even illuminated. I'd like some info to go back to the dealer and make a complaint about the service guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
P_G Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Metal to metal would indicate the backing strip was rubbing against the disk and no pad material was left. I think sensor activation is at 2mm left on pad but don't quote me on that. I'll measure the RS4 pads I have at home tonight and let you know.

_Rupert_ Posted December 5, 2006 Report Share Posted December 5, 2006 Exactly! I think he added the "metal to metal" comment to shock me into paying Audi prices. Unfortunately for him, I'm not afraid of getting my hands dirty. Saved £730, and lost some more confidence in Audi's integrity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
