I have R32 front and rear brakes they feel and work 1000% better. The stock brakes imo are horrible. I warped both front rotors at 15K but pads still had some meat left. I switched to r32 calipers, rotors, pads, SS lines and motul brake fluid. They are way more responsive and feel more like my friends 17' A4 brakes.
Reviews of MOTUL parts For Business
France
Motul Xcess full synthetic
- Oil: Mobil 1 full synthetic extended mileage, 5W-30, both cars
- Brake: Motul 5.1 for the buick, Motul RBF600 for the vette
I use Motul 300V Power 5w40 for my Stage 2 tuned S5 3.0 TFSI.
Upgraded brake lines. the stock lines are not up to the task of repeated hard braking temps. Your brake fluid should be something along the lines of Motul 600 or the like.
but I bought the ECS Oil Kit for the MK7 that includes O-Ring, OEM Filter, Plastic drain plug and Motul oil and it was $55-60 I think.
I've just bled the brakes with fresh Motul RPF600 race brake fluid
I just changed the oil with 2,960 on the odometer. This is the car's first oil change. Used zero oil since new. New Mann filter and Motul 5-40. Can't prove it but I swear it runs better.
Initially I used Mobil 1 0w-40 for the first few oil changes... Engine Idle was sort of noisy for a car that had less than 50k miles. What made me switch was when I opened up my oil cap on 2 different occasion to see smoke come out. After that I switched to Motul. With motul the power deliver was more smooth, less aggressive. Engine idle was quieter. The car felt slower but the engine overall seemed healthier. Most importantly i havn't exxperince smoke after opening the oil cap since switching over.
It might be due to a difference in oil viscosity. With usage the Motul oil has sheared down to 30 weight which makes the engine run more freely and cooler as compared to fresh Castrol which has not accumulated enough hours to lose viscosity. It's been well documented that a viscosity decrease lowers oil temperature.
