2000 A6 recommended brakes
Can anyone please help me decide what kind of brake pads and rotors i should buy for my 2000 A6? I am not very familiar with the model. I just bought it, i love it. I was told is the sport edition, it has 4 pads / wheel in the front.
I would like to put ceramic drilled rotors and pads.
Can any one recommend some names, brands...as well as how much would a job like this cost me. Should i do all 4 wheels, or just the front?
Any suggestion will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Flat rotors, pads as close to OEM as you can find...unless you intend to track the car or you have other requirements.
I think that you would have got more answers if you gave more info on how the car is driven.

I am a regular driver, nothing special. I a not gonna race the car, although the person who sold it to me said he has a chip inside bringing the car to 315 HP. Basically i need the car to stop really fast, with no noise and less dust as possible.
Right now the rims are almost grey due to brake dust.

Your gonna wanna get cross-drilled and/or slitted rotors and carbon-ceramic brakes or semi-metallic brake pads. $ 200-300 on eBay will get you the cross-slitted and drilled rotors for all 4-wheels and many come with brake pads.

I just bought some cross drilled and slotted rotors for front and rear from ECS tuning. I also bought the PBR ceramic brake pads and am very happy with the results. The stopping power is excellent but i haven't had them on long enough to see how dusty they are.
