I meant I'll forget how to put it in jack mode, not that I need to do it. Getting old sucks!

That's about what I paid at the BMW dealer. It's amazing what Bentley wants for parts.

I got my discs and pads from Prindiville in London and fitted them myself.
The cost was £1,062 delivered.
The rear discs were stamped AUDI. Not sure which model.
They were all in original Bentley packaging.
I do have a Diagnostics tool for winding back the park brake and recalibrating.
It was quite a straight forward job really and no issues since.

Les.

Make sure to compare part number before you order.

Dont know if its the same in US/Canada market but in the UK there was a factory re-call to dealers to have all the coil packs replaced because there was a faulty batch. I think this also applied to some VW Audi vehicles as well/

Ouch! Unfortunately, probably big bucks. If you have access to more than one dealer check with all. I've seen a huge difference in tech's knowledge at Chicago area Bentley dealers.

First try disconnecting your batteries. This topic is already covered in-depth in this forum:

I have had zero problems with my Bentley GT and today my girlfriend got in my car to drive and she adjusted the seat forward and as soon as she put it in reverse it said AIRBAG Fault. Anyone suggestions on what to try?
