Audi A8 2003 Brake system Workshop Manual (Edition 03.2013)

Repair Group: 00 – Technical data, 45 – Anti-lock brake system, 46 – Brakes – mechanism, 47 – Brakes – hydraulics

Technical information should always be available to the foremen and mechanics, because their careful and constant adherence to the instructions is essential to ensure vehicle road-worthiness and safety. In addition, the normal basic safety precautions for working on motor vehicles must, as a matter of course, be observed.
