B9 RS4 brake disc and pad change

[Darylmt1]

Hi all,

does anyone have any links to how to change the discs and pads on the b9 RS4?

I can find loads for the S4/5 but not RS

I have a 2021 B9.5 RS4 and although the pads are about 60% the discs are quite worn and scored.

thanks in advance

HI Dary, I’ve just changed the from and rear pads on my RS4 B9.5. The videos for the S4 you have found online can be referenced for your model mate. I used the same and can confirm the S4 replacement procedure is exactly the same. I went for the Brembo pads rather than OEM, feel pretty good so far.
 

if you are ordering replacement pads, make sure you get the accessories kit, it contains new clips etc. The old clips on my pads came out in pieces and they will need replaced. I also purchased new pad wear  sensors. One sensor for each axle.  
 

Im sure you have this in hand but just a reminder you will need an OBD2 to retract the rear handbrake before replacing the rear disc and pads. 
 

Edit, sorry, just realised you posted this 8 months ago! Im new to the forum but lesson learned, check the dates before replying. 🙂

Can you recommend where to buy discs and pads - front of RS5 B9.5 year 2020. Europarts / GSF seem to be similar prices to Audi.

Bought my pads from Europarts mate. Quick delivery and they have everything you need. I didn’t do the discs but Zimmermann discs seem to get plenty of recommendations. That’s the ones I would buy anyway.

Try Parts in Motion at Exeter. You will find them on eBay as well as their website. 
Perhaps you would let us know how prices compare with ECP.

Any good reason for buying from ECP?
