Default Trouble sourcing HP2 caliper rebuild kit or reman. units; anyone?

Local import parts guy claimed he had a reman. source, but "they don't do HP2". Dealer claims no rebuild kit, just new units (~$500.00 each).

I just need to replace one of the rubber dust boots that go around the pistons. Any ideas? I can't be the first A6 or A8 owner to have a messed up dust boot on an HP2, can I?

Default Blauparts? ECSTuning?

Even if they're not on their web sites, call those guys up.

Default Here you go:

You want part number 4D0 698 471, either from your friendly dealer or on line places. I picked worldimpex.com just because they have an easy to use site.<ul><li><a href="http://www.worldimpex.com/search_by_partno.html?searchmode=partno&amp;partno =4D0698471&amp;x=40&amp;y=4">Click</a></li></ul>

Default Wow....thanks Steve!

Saved again by AudiWorld contributors!

I should have been suspicious of the dealer claiming no such kit after reading the kit install instructions in the Bentley manual. Too bad they don't publish VAG part numbers in the manual (or am I missing something?)

Default If it's for a 4.2, then.......

...I might have a set for you that just came off my S6 when I put Stoptechs on.

Write me if you're interested....

Thanks, but no, it's 2.7T - is the HP2 different between the 4.2 and 2.7T?

Default You're not missing anything

Check eBay for ETKA, people sell bootleg versions of the parts program from time-to-time.
