Looking for someone to do some Audi front brakes, beyond being bent over by the Audi dealer. Any recommendations?

Trouble is he's so good that sometimes you have to book far in advance

I've used Brake Check (NW location) for my Lexus, and my gf went to them to get her brakes done on her Golf. Both of us saved over $250 compared to other quotes, and never had an issue.

I know a guy. His name is Herman and he lives in NW Calgary. He’s not very good but he’s German.

I've relied on Sheni's AutoTrend for all my European stuff, no complaints here.

The Germans dont need Car Mechanics because German cars just work.

George @TuneDub is good, but he likely wont touch your car. Also not sure if he has a proper service advisor yet, vs receptionist.

Highly recommend Calgary Auto Works.

not so much a recommendation but would advise against tunedub. they gave me quote for $1100 fuel pump but indicated ok to drive car. took to audi they found fuel leaking and unsafe to drive car (shown the pictures shocked tunedub missed this) - turns out issue covered on recall and dont need to swap out pump just the seal and flange

Is it possible to do them yourself and save a bunch of cash? disc brakes are extremely easy and you need very little tools.

Search your model on youtube.

Example
