Break info

[NarkolepticBandit600S]

I know that the old forum site had information on rotors, shoes and brake lines...ect. But I cant seem to find a thread on brakes here. So if you dont mind telling me something that has prob been said 100 time befor...here goes.

2001 B6 I need break work done. I dont think I need new rotors, but definatly need them turned, and of course new shoes, this is just for the front for the time being. I have been looking up break parts but cant a good place that has much information.  If anyone has some pointers and info on this subject please let me know. thanks

I doubt you can find anyone that'll turn m/c rotors. Generally, if they get grooved or warped, they're replaced.

Go to the web sites of the pad brands you are considering to choose the compound that suits you. Here's a few popular brands:

EBC (also makes rotors)
Ferodo
Galfer (also makes brake lines & rotors)
SBS - Scandinavian Brake Systems
