Had my T6 nearly a week now and the alloys are starting to look rather dusty off the brake pads. Has anyone changed them to something similar to ebc red stuff? Doesn't look like they do them for the T6 yet.
Yeah I plan on going to that after using the last of my poor boys stuff but still seems like a lot of dust considering it's done only 100 miles or so
I seem to recall reading that new pads have some form of break-in layer - certainly the pads on our van produced a lot of dust in the first few hundred miles and seem to produce much less now (just over 1,000). Likewise my car which had new pads and discs recently.
Just to revive this thread. I'm due new front brake pads, and possibly discs. Has anyone found a better pad than original that doesn't dust up so quickly. Although my new steel wheels are nice and easy to clean, they do dust up from the front pads really quickly. I'm wondering if there's a better option that someone else has actually tested out.
I know thats what they claim, but wondered if anyone had actually had a set. My issue is, I can have a full set of Brembo front brake pads and discs from EuroCarParts for less than £150 delivered, but I can guarantee that even though it's through the Reg number, they will be wrong knowing my luck. It just seems quite cheap.
Sorry, I don't know what I asked that question. Too many beers and eyes fixed on tennis matches for waaaaaaaayyyyy too long. (Go Anderson)
Been looking at these when I need to do mine VOLKSWAGEN COMMERCIAL Transporter (Kombi)/Camper Van 2.0 Twin TD (T6) 2015- - EBC Brakes Discs, Pads and Shoes
Surely the rear brake grinding that almost all 204 Kombis suffer with is reason not to put OEM pads and discs back on. What have other members used?
