Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Ok I am goin nuts here ... first off I dont own a Porsche but I have bought a set of Porsche calipers and mounting hardware that fits on my Audi A4 for an upgrade. The problem is that I rushed the calipers off to powdercoating before noting the part number so I can order pads ! I know, rookie move ! Now I am pretty sure that the part number (after much research) I think is 996.351.429-10 and 996.351.430-10 the problem is I am trying to order pads and the first pads I have been sent are all wrong, they look like they are more for a 6 piston caliper not my 4 piston calipers. Here are the calipers before powdercoating in case that helps anyone ... Now here are the pads that the shop wants to send me ... they note a part number of 996-351-949-12. Can anyone shed any light here on what I have and what I need ? It would be deeply appreciated ! Thanks

POST 2Original post

Looks like you have a set of front '02 and up C4S calipers. The 996-351-949-12 part number are the correct pads for those calipers. What kind of rotors are you going to be using? Cheers!

POST 3 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

If I can ever get a set of pads that fit ... I will run the rotors that came with the kit, I believe they are 328mm. Maybe I will take the caliper to a Porsche dealer tomorow to try a pad fitment ...
