I got the Bimmerlink app to connect to the car with the Mx+ adapter. I was able to put the rear parking brake in service mode. I am tackling the rear brakes today and will post pictures.

If the stopping power the same as original pads, better or worse? How's the dust issue? Do you still get dust or is it dramatically reduced? Any noise when they're cold?

Better than OEM stopping power. Reduced dust.....yes. Still puts out dust though. Was hoping the dust was as good as Akebono pads but unfortunately it's not. Zero noise.

www.g-locbrakes.com has brake pads and can also make custom pads. We get all our stuff for our race cars AND street cars there. The pads are fantastic. Ask for Danny when you call.

Figured it out, the B7 I have, 2019 production, uses the DP32320C on the rears. No idea why you use something different. What year is your B7 and product month/year? I am a 08/19 and they did change the rear brake caliper in 03/20, so I'll guess you are after that? Let me know, it would be good for other folks to know this..

Hi,
I understand from ATE website that they only recommend ceramic pads for vehicles up to 225kw ?! "The ATE Ceramic is not suitable for high performance or racing! The brake pad has been designed for use in normal road traffic and offers a longer service life, less noise and significantly reduced brake dust formation on the rims under normal driving conditions. ATE Ceramic brake pads should not be confused with brake pads for ceramic composite brake discs used in high-priced sports and luxury vehicles. In contrast to conventional brake pads, ATE Ceramic brake pads contain mild abrasives and no steel components. ATE Ceramic brake pads are designed for drivers who demand comfort. Under these driving conditions, the brake pad offers longer brake pad and disc life, less noise and significantly reduced brake dust on the vehicle rims." Whats the catch? |
