I like to know if I would be able to change the front pads on my audi, I have change other cars front pads but I just don't want to try to save money and in the end it will cost more, is it the same as other calipers or are they different and do you have a step by step proceger?

The audi a8 had 3 different designs of front brakes so I would need to know which type you had. They are either ATE FN3 (single piston calipers), HP-2 (Dual-Piston Calipers) or Brembo (4-piston) caliper
