I then decided to get the discs grooved so spoke with http://www.crn-uk.com/ who are based near me (there website is not the best but the two chaps who own the company are spot on.

Pagid has a strong history and earned its reputation with vehicle manufacturers like VW Group, DaimlerChrysler, Opel/Saab and Porsche.
Through the years a philosophy of quality and performance has ensured Pagid has evolved into the choice of vehicle manufacturers globally.
Pagid's reputation for high performance friction is substantiated by O.E. approvals with:
Chosen by many of the world's leading vehicle manufacturers, as well as race teams at the very highest levels of motorsport, Pagid is one of the world's most respected braking brands and a name synonymous with research and development. Its new coated discs are just the latest in a long line of innovations.
The unique surface coating on Pagid's coated discs provides grease-free protection against corrosion, allowing for faster fitting than conventional discs, which require the installer to remove a layer of protective grease.
Donna West, director of communications, comments: "Pagid's new coated discs are the perfect partner to their O.E. quality brake pad range. They offer a quicker and easier fitment procedure, as they're straight out of the box and onto the vehicle and, whilst they're ideal for vehicles fitted with alloy wheels, as the special coating offers long-lasting protection against unsightly corrosion, every vehicle manufacturer is covered by Pagid's extensive range."
