Really that bad? Surprising to hear as EBC have a good rep with other marks. Not the first time I've ready RS3's having some issues with them though. Will take your advice on this one though!
. Are there any low dusting pads out there, or are ferrodo really our best and only choice?
How has rust been on your Reylands when they get wet and sit a while?
I had them on my 8P. Fine at first then after a few hundred miles they lost their bite and caused severe vibration upon braking, took them off and binned em !
1 owner of a PFL local to me said he actually had many brown trouser moments at roundabouts wondering if the car was going to pull up in time.
Another owner friend was at MRC having mapping done, they went out on the road after and Doug made him turn back, same thing, car wouldn’t pull up quickly at all.
Doug actually fitted a set of Ferodo pads he had in stock, the Redstuff went straight in the bin I’m told.
I noticed when I had mine they actually polished the discs up to a mirror finish, which I didn’t think was right, and other owners/users reported the same thing, when I spoke to a brake specialist about this, he said they were basically offering sod all friction reaction with the discs, instead he said all they are doing is polishing up the discs because of the ceramic content that makes for low dust, when they should really be ‘grabbing’ at the discs to slow the car down properly.
Redstuff maybe ok for going to the shops and back, however if you use the cars performance then I’m afraid you’ll come unstuck.
Dust you say? Yes ok the Ferodo do generate it, no more than oem pads though, if it bugs you, wash the car more
