Default Have a A4 B6 looking for brakes and rotors

I have an A4 B6 6 speed V6 that has being sitting and only has 65.xxx Kilometers on it it . I took it out for a shake down and noticed it was shuddering on harder braking ... Dealer may take care of it but not overly confident they will .
so i may as well plan for replacement at my cost ... Were do i go to buy in western Canada Calgary to be exact ???




Thank you

Auto parts way Canada
Stick with plain OEM Zimmerman rotors and also went with akebono-euro ceramic pads...best stock upgrade I ever made on a budget.
Pads do not squeek, no brake dust and increased braking power!
Hawks hps pads are alo great but more expensive..
Do some reading, you will learn a lot that is how I learned

Maybe someone can help you...maybe you can find some local parts store, have you tried the yellow pages or online listing of local stores?

rockauto.com they have a huge selection and their prices can't be beat, they ship to canada and don't charge any extra duties and they have akebono pads, ate rotors and pretty much anything else you can think of.
