ap or mov it

[denniselbows]

hi all i am considering one of these kits which would be the better option ap with 330mm but 28mm thick or mov it with 322mm but 32mm thick both will be better that standard but anybody had problems with either?

Porsche calipers and A8 discs, will give you a bit more pocket money after as well
And they work really well

Something else completely. I'm considering changing my Mov'it's for something else - they stop the car well but haven't been comlpetely trouble-free and are mind-blowingly expensive to replace disks and/or pads. A friend is about to replace his AP's after a string of problems. Suggest investigating alternatives (search this forum), including the maintenance/replacement/ongoing costs.

Ck.

There are considerably cheaper options than Movit, unless you like paying £185 for a set of pads that can be had for £70, we have recently replaced parts on 2 Movit equipped Audi's, the customer's where not prepared to pay Movit's prices.

porsche calipers and a8.....tried and tested and parts prices remain as cheap or expensive as you like.

I would go for the APs, but get a thicker disk for them. They're a bit squeaky with no anti-squeal shims, and those invisible dust seals are great.

[denniselbows]

the thing that has lead me to these that they are complete kits that i can get in one go and no making things. but you are all right lots of £££ was more ap than movit as pads and discs a s**t loads as my friend has found out. corey would you be able to suply all parts needed? i have 18" wheels to fill up so size no so much a problem. 4wheeldrifter has said thicker discs than 28mm why longer life ?

Go with porsche you can source the parts in a couple of days
RS2 hard lines VAG parts 20 quid
RS2 calliper carrier vag parts 90quid cupra carriers 35 quid need work
A8 323mm Brembos GSF 80quid
996 monoblocks porsche Breakers \ebay 200\250 quid
pads 35\ 155 quid.
This should save you 700 quid not bad for a little time and effort.

All our kits come complete with all parts required, you just need to add the car and brake fluid. You even get a choice of caliper colour as we refinish them to whatever colour you wish (although we draw the line at Lambo glittery orange, Jay )
