<x-charset iso-8859-1>Hello Perl, I would have thought that the Quattro would have different brakes being a more powerful car, although I admit I'm not familiar with the marque. When I purchased my pads from 'German, Swedish and French' it listed Volvo's and Audi's on the box and the guy behind the counter mentioned they were for the rear brakes on those cars, like I said though I can't recall which models. I'll find out though as I am now intrigued. cheers, Dan '73 Fastback ---- -----Original Message----- From: Per Lindgren [mailto:lindgre@online.no] Sent: Saturday, July 13, 2002 1:22 AM Subject: Re: [T3] Brake Pads????

I drive a late 80's Audi myself (1987 Coupe quattro) and know those cars well. The pads on these cars are saddle mount, with a floating 1-piston caliper. There are no pin hole that lets them mount to the type 3 caliper.
