Have you heard any complaints lately from your Audi S8 brakes? If your S8 brakes are squeaking, squealing, grinding, soft, or pulling, you need to address the problem and fix it right away. Properly functioning Audi S8 brakes are essential to your safety on the road. What are the possible problems you can experience with your S8 brakes? There are generally two different types of braking systems: drum brakes and disc brakes.

Most Audi S8 brakes are an all-wheel disc braking system. Your S8 brakes include several components that work together to bring your car to a safe and controlled stop every time you step on your brake pedal.

Audi S8 brakes include hydraulic components and frictional components. The frictional components of your S8 brakes are your brake pads and brake rotors, sometimes called brake discs. The brake pads are brought into contact with the rotors to generate the friction your vehicle uses to stop the rotating motion of your wheels. The purpose of your Audi S8 brakes' hydraulic components—the master cylinder, brake calipers, and various brake line and brake hose—is to transmit the force of the pressure on your brake pedal to the calipers, which control the clamping movement of the brake pads. Your S8 brakes may be soft, which typically means you have a brake fluid leak somewhere in the lines, hoses, or master cylinder. Squealing or squeaking Audi S8 brakes can usually be traced to your brake pads, while grinding or pulling S8 brakes often indicate a problem with the rotors or calipers.No matter what parts you need for your Audi S8 brakes, you will find them right here in our extensive online catalogue.
