Default will a4 caliper fit s4???
i am in a bind was replacing the rear brakes anc broke the caliper on my 00 s4 due to not having the knowledge of twisting the caliper back in, so i am in need of a new one since the caliper will no longer push out the piston due to us using a press on it

best chance is a a4 one in stock at teh dealer otherwise i am SOL!!

Default NO
S4 has bigger rotors and two piston calipers. A4's don't. Look at the Model Guide and go to historical and look at the brake specs of the different models.

but still wont work becuase a4 rotor is smaller than the s4.
