Took the OS brake caliper off as piston was binding.
Had been planning to fit new. I'm sure I've seen them cheaper than this(£60.95/pr)...A new piston and seals and then brakes will be as new ?.
Further confirmation from 'the boss' today as I swapped Smurf for Buzz and she drove the TDI home. Smurf is here to stay, particularly now the exhaust is fixed. I don't dislike the TDIs though they're so loud by comparison.
I'd suggest the minimum quantity should be four, one of each(engine). This means I only have one too many! ?Totally agree: the TDi's are brilliant on the longer journeys when they quieten down and just get into their stride. The petrols, I think, match the sophisticated, modern and forward looking image of the A2 so well. They also seem to highlight the lightness of the whole car. It does seem a shame to me to put all that effort into engineering an aluminum shell, only to drop what even their most ardent fans would admit, a somewhat 'chatty' and weighty lump in there.
This is exactly why the minimum number of A2's one should own is two ?
