What does everyone recommend?
In the past with cars I’ve always got mtec discs and Mintex pads I had ebc red stuff but I fried them so not really a fan of any of what I’ve tried before.

I’d like grooved and dimpled or drilled for looks

Can't comment for the A6 but I used Pagid discs and pads on my A3 and got good performance from them. ECP usually have a sale on as well if you want to do it yourself.

Probably a bit late - but my Mtec discs have been spot on. Grooved and dimpled. Not a fan of drilled - prone to cracks.

Brembo pads have been a good combo with the Mtec discs.

Avoid Pagid. Dusty and poor performance. Even had a set wrapped out of the box. That was an interesting return process!
 
My weapons of choice at the moment are Brembo discs with EBC Redstuff - they're pretty good! :)

Hi james
I've just fitted brembo discs and pads on my 3.0l v6 tdi,I've let them bed in,cant fault them,pleanty of stopping power when needed,look decent too,metal flake black paint all round exterior surfaces,I got them from gsf carparts.I dont normally use them but they were the only people locally who stocked them
