Question about brake service
Hello everyone.I have a 2007 Audi A4 that is currently in for service.I was last in for a brake light replacement in (July) and was told that my brakes were below specs. I now understand that brake pads/rotors have a factory required thickness. I was told just a few weeks ago that the spec requirement was 5mm, and at the same time I was told by the same rep that my brake thickness was 2mm.I looked at my 15K service report(5/21/09)that indicated the brake thickness on all wheels was 8mm with 15,170 miles. I now have 17,600 miles on the vehicle.Hmm, could I have been told an untruth? Is it possible to wear down a set of brakes 6mm in two months and 2500 miles? Open to all suggestions. I feel like I might be getting ripped off. The car is under warranty. Thanks |

Re: Question about brake service
Only way to know 100% is to check it your self. Techs get in a hurry and are not specific , or they flat out lie.
I have seen brakes wear out very fast though. |

Re: Question about brake service
Well if it's covered by warranty and the tech is willing to submit the claim, I'd just go ahead and get them replaced...
