Hi Guys,
I am hoping for a bit of help here with regards to warranties, discs and pads...
The story is that I got my car from Audi in October, it had its front discs and pads changed under warranty in the February due to them warping. Having spoken with John and read threads regarding redstuff I decided that it would be best to avoid the warping in future and therefore put a set on whilst the discs are new. Now in less than 3000 miles and only 6 months later they are warped again requiring another set.
So... this is where im stuck between a rock and a hard place. Audi have gave me the following options;
So my question is what the heck do I do and what would have caused my discs to warp again? They are going to carry out a force wheel balance and geometry setup but what else can I ask them to check? I don't drive it like a maniac and its never been on a track.
Thanks for reading and any advice would be much appreciated.
Cheers

- Replace discs under warranty and refit used redstuff (would void future disc warranty)
- Replace discs under warranty and fit a new set of redstuff (would void future disc warranty)
- Replace discs under warranty and buy a set of Audi pads (maintain the warranty and don't fit redstuff)
So my question is what the heck do I do and what would have caused my discs to warp again? They are going to carry out a force wheel balance and geometry setup but what else can I ask them to check? I don't drive it like a maniac and its never been on a track.
