Brakes - I need your help - Hey guys,
This weekend I took my car to a regular shop (Not an Audi dealer) to have my brake pad changed and my rotors cut. - The pads I bought are brand new, bought them at Autozone. - They are the top of the line pads that are supposed to exceed Audi's OEM brakes.
Anyways, the shop cut the rotors and put the brakes on, however my car stops like complete ****. - It appears that the brakes have NOT been bled correctly. -
The shop was bleeding the brakes while I was there, just as I would have if I were working on the brakes at home.
The dealership states they will bleed the brakes for $85. (Complete flush) - They have what is called a " powerbleeder "
My question to all of you is : what did you do when you changed your brakes? - Anything special need to be done? - Right now my brakes are horrible! - I can stop, but it stops like my old ford tarus in high school, I have to push REALLY hard to the floor to get it to stop hard, and even then it's still very soft. - When normally this car stop's on a dime.
Thanks fore the help guys |
