What Brake Pads?

Post by dadavies90 »

Hi all, I'm looking for some advice in regards to brake pads for my scirocco. I need to replace the front and back on my 2010 plate 1.4 tsi but not sure which are best? Any advice would be great. Also, a link to the best place to buy would be great? Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply. There are so many different makes I just don't know which to get and don't want to get some cheap ones that don't last! The usual brands keep popping up like Brembo etc?

Unless you do track days, stick to OEM from either TPS or ECP.

EBC pads are like marmite, some people swear by them and others slate them.

Ferodo DS2500 always get great reports but are expensive and can be noisy.
