is this the same kit?

edit: is this the same thing? just bought altogether at once

brakes are honestly the last thing you need to worry about. worry about your transmission

Nice try, not quite the caliper being used. This thread is about 6 pot touareg and cayenne calipers.

But ya ebay or craigslist is probably your best bet.

[Stubek]

Just looked on ebay.de. There are quite a few there, but I don't know german, so I don't know which ones are 6pot vs. 4. I did see one 6pot single caliper front left for $149 euro. Problem with ebay.de is most people won't ship to the US, but you can find members on here in the EU willing to buy for you.

ok so i might get bashed for this but i have read 20 something pages in two different threads about the bbk but my question is.. has any one or does any one know what rotor to use for the rear bbk with stock caliper without buying the expensive kits... as i get cost on everything threw parts dealers...

[Stubek]

If you are asking if you can use bigger rorotrs with stock A4 calipers, no, you cannot.
If you are asking what size rotors to use with the Toureg calipiers, use the same size as Toureg rotors

[jonnys2k]

no jhm offers a rear bbk for stock s4 calipers on my b5 s4 but i was asking what other rotors if any has tried fitting them would work

The 300mm rear kit uses stock rotors from a b6/b7 S4. you will also need the custom bracket made by 034 and the brake lines.

I have the brake lines for sale in classifieds. PM if you are in need.

I hate to bring this back thread back up but quick question! For those who did and did the bleeder flip, how difficult is it suppose to be? i have mine apart and the dont seem to be going in as easy..

Did that with a different set of Brembo calipers, and will be doing the same with the Cayenne calipers for my B7.
Very straight forward shouldn't take very long. Just make sure the crossover lines are clean and start loosening them a little a few turns on each side of the line until the line is off. Then move the bleeders over.

[Apikol]

Just looking thru this old thread for the 345mm Mercedes number, and thought I'd mention that we (Apikol) have brackets to mount the 17Z caliper on the B5 A4.

RacerX et al,

is anyone making the adapters for the 330mm calipers? A4 not S4....

[Korben007]

part number is 1644211412 for ML 55 rotors.

[Korben007]

Wondering why when I look at B7 RS4 lines some have banjo fitting and some have flare fittings with a 90degree bend. does either one work?

[SeKKeY]

i used the ones with 90 degree bend

I saw some other forum using 350mm MB GL450 rotor on A3, anyone using this one on A4??perfect offset?

Looks close. The ML55 has a height of 44.5mm from hub mounting face to back of rotor. The GL450 has a hub mounting face of 47.5mm. So the back side of the rotor is gonna be 3mm closer to the inside of the car. Anyone know if this is better or worse for fitment. They are both 32mm width.

[*Blue-Angel*]

That is a terrible design of a rotor. You want the differential to be ~0-.5mm not 3mm. One major reason to stay away from this set up.

[ichitakaleo]

I think a 3mm spacer can cover this 3mm problem

[Korben007]

yeah i suppose you could space it 3 mm under the rotor. wouldn't be hard to machine a piece. I would have to pressed into the hat though to insure secure fit
