Brake pads ATE or Ferodo

Ferodo 3.12 pads ( 6 track days+? we will see)

I went ATE pads and rotors from FCP and couldn't be happier

I run ATE Ceramic pads with Zimmerman rotors on my MK7 and am very satisfied.

Now I have a 19 R DSG, and I've tracked it twice (Summit Point and VIR) with nothing more than new rotors, Ferodo brake pads and Motul 500 fluid. I never had any overheating issues with either the brakes or the oil, but both weekends were cooler weather.

I’d recommend DS2500’s. They are a bit noisy for everyday but the performance is worth it. Nice and predictable feel

I have personally bought Ferodo brake pads from AF1racing for my 2022 SR/S. Pads work great

Gyrodisc 2 piece rotors + Ferodo DS2500.

Up for sale are new Ferodo DS2500 brake pads for an MK7 Golf R. I had bought these to replace my noisy new Hawk pads, but have decided to just stick with the noisy hawk pads.

SOLVED - I simply overheated the pads. Spoke to Ferodo and I followed their advice: Bed in was fine. Overheating led to pad material bake to the rotors. 120 grit block sanding on the rotors removed this. Pads were a little glazed but 80 grit sanding removed the shiny bits. Bed in again and running well but haven’t pushed it yet so unsure if the pads are done.

I swapped out the rear pads on my 2017 Mk7 Golf R following the instructions for doing so with OBD Eleven Pro to a "t" and still wound up with a plethora of error codes. I installed new (Ferrodo) pads
