Hi!
I am about to replace my old el cheapo Bosch discs and pads along with the brake lines (?), rebuild calipers and change the brake fluid.
I checked the prices of OEM parts, but I am unable to cope with them financially.
I am oscillating between Jurid and Ate disks and pads. There is a price difference, but if the difference in quality is significant I won't be reluctant to pay the higher price for the Ate parts.
My old Bosch discs were fitted 3 years ago (apr. 48.000 miles or 78.000 kms) and now are giving me an annoying judder. Time to replace them, since in a couple of weeks I'll be doing a trip to Italy (apr. 2500 miles) with wife and two kids.
So... what would you choose if you were walking in my shoes (money IS an issue, and I am willing to keep the car for long)?
Thanks for reading.
