Seen a lot of threads here about brakes pads but not much about pads for low brake dust, anyone got any recommendations for pads with low dust? I've been using Brembo xtra pads with DBA discs on the front for the last couple of months but they produce a crazy amount of dust and they squeal when...

Don't see why there would be a problem. When I bought mine from a wheel shop on ebay they where just being advertised to fit an RS3 8v, mine are fitted to a sportback and I didn't need spacers.

Had a good run out today. The gear shifts in manual and dynamic mode are quicker and crisper, and I don't recommend it but it'll even shift at the limiter. It also seems like my mpg has improved in suburban driving and it definitely cools quicker. It's transformed the car couldn't recommend it...

3 years later.. Had the TVS stage 2+ dsg software installed today at Peron Automotive. They did tell me it would take bit over 100 miles to adapt, but just from the drive back down I can tell it's improved the car massively. It's smoother and the shift points are where they should of been from...

Genuine question is there a reason you wet the car before snow foaming I thought you was supposed to snow foam onto a dry car? So that the foam dwells for longer and you're not pushing as much muck across the paintwork before foaming.

I wouldn't try it myself you might get away with if there's little muck on you car. I use Bilt Hamber snow foam myself, I'll spray it on before jet washing then leave it 5 minutes and jet wash the rest off and continue with the normal wash and bucket. The general idea of snow foam is to get off...

The mechanic at the garage who fitted my discs and pads said he couldn't hear it when he started it up but the engine probably would've still been warm. I couldn't hear it either when I started it up to drive home, he also said he thinks it's down to the cold weather and it won't be there when...

no tah

No to be honest I thought before it might of just been to do with cold whether it's in at a local garage this morning have the front discs and pads changed. I was in a bit of a rush this morning to get it to the garage and usually I'd that let it run through the whole cold start process before I...

I'm having an issue on a cold start with my RS3. When I start it I can hear a knocking sound and when I put it into gear it almost goes away and when the engines warm it goes away. It's running stage 2 revo software without a DSG tune and I know it's highly recommended for a DSG tune running...

Just wanted to start a thread to see if a list of the best VAG specialists from around the UK can be made. Anyone who knows a good'n drop them in the thread. This is my 2 cents: Midland VW - 21 Conduit Rd, Norton Canes, Cannock WS11 9TJ S Line Automotive - 34 Jubilee Dr, Loughborough LE11 5XS

I'm not from your area but from quick google search and going off their google reviews this garage looks like a good shout for Manchester. https://www.vagtechnik.co.uk/

Thanks for the help:thumbs up:

Reylands it is then

If you posted the picture on here in a different post I might of seen it. Was it the picture of the just a disc being held on a scale? The reason I was looking to see what the total weight is, is because I'm contemplating getting Reylands or the stock brembos. I can get the stock brembo discs...
