    I own a 1991 Audi V8 Quattro and am need of some new front brake discs. I am having a nightmare of a time trying to find replacements. Every supplier I try sends me the wrong ones, the only correct ones I can find are direct from Audi for £300 a set!!

    Has anyone else had trouble obtainng these discs or does anyone know of anywhere I can try?

    Thanks

    The V8's 310-mm discs are a very unusual design and the part number 441 615 283 S is only available genuine as far as I can establish even though they were made by ATE, they don't list them. Plenty of companies, including ATE, list the pads.

    Yes those, are the discs, very different to anything I keep being supplied. I guess I will have to buy through Audi then.

    Thanks for your help!

    Have you tried VAG Parts, or Euro Car Parts to see if they can get them?

    Its unlikely that they'll have'em couse they sound very rare. But have you tried www.blackdiamondperformance.com or even EBC? Do you know if the disc's were fitted to other cars (in or outside of the VAG Group)?

    a8tec might know summit?

    click 'vehicles' then 'Audi' and then 3rd from bottom in left column?

    Not sure if this is a start or not? If you keep clicking it takes you to other stuff about the brakes. Seems to be the rears tho? Good luck!

    Try the last 4 at the bottom of the page, but is the mm size incorrect?
