There is a lot of pad left. Its almost brand new. I bought it with brakes just done. I dont want to replace everything on stock brakes because I was hoping to do the TT/ A8 brake upgrade rather than replace stock brakes. It squeaks when brakes arent applied as well. Its driving me crazy. What could it be?

 

the anti squeal clips are on correct. Shims too? Have you broken then in properly?try a little anti squeal. Are the pads wearing evenly?

 

It almost looks like its not beveled enough on the pad. I bought the car after it had been sitting. Brakes were very rusty. But if it was just that theyd all squeak. Im new to these german brakes. I didnt know there were shims, my explorers squeakers were on the pad not sepetate. Anything else I should check? P.s. it got worse after i did TRE and got aligned. Idk if thats a coincidence or not.

 

do you feel wobble in the brake pedal when you push? vibrations if you will.

 

Since these are "floating" the calipers, they must be able to slide on the mounting pins easily. It is possible that the slide pins have become corroded on that caliper, causing it to drag just a bit. You could jack it up with both front wheels off the ground and spin that wheel.

These are the pins. Audi B5 A4 Quattro V6 30v > Braking > Caliper > ES#4928 Front Caliper Guide Pin - Priced Each - 251615219

 

I dont feel pedal pulsations. I can hear dragging when spinning wheel. Ill look into it today orThursday.

 

sounds like your pins need greasing. or the caliper is seizing

 

Are you experiencing a light squeaking, similar to a bird chirp almost? It doesn't slow you down or anything.

 

You also say, almost brand new, my ebc greens squeaked for the first 300 miles, annoying as ****..

 

They have probably 2000 miles on them, and they didnt squeal or squeak before. It just recently started happening last ~200 miles. Its only coming from one brake setup as well, specifically the passenger front. Ill pull the wheel and check it all out Thursday. Just tell me what I should be looking for please.
