If you get a mk7, get the lighting and performance pack. The headlight performance is astonishing. The performance pack brakes are amazing not to mention how sweet the diff is on a back road.
I am very happy with Ferodo's DS2500 pads. I also prefer not to swap pads and just run one set that works for both street and track. I participate in autoX and HPDE events - mostly the latter this year. The Ferodo pads have great initial bite when cold, perform well when hot, and seem to be easy on rotors
Same, with a 2015 on stage 2 tune it can be pretty quick and on road trips with the cruise set to 70 it can pull some pretty fantastic fuel economy.
Thanks for the pad info, heard very good things about the ferodo on here.
Ferado Fast Road pads. DS2000s maybe? Excellent cold bite and never had them fade while left-foot- braking during autox. Had some Hawks or something and they destroyed the rotors just daily driving them. Compound was way too aggressive on those.
I like the Ferodos and I would buy them again. They had good feel and bite, and they are quiet.
The Ferodo's are great. I will need to replace my pads after my next event in January. I am going to try Carbotech pads this next time, XP10 in front and XP8 in the rear after discussing my needs with them.
The brakes are a bit touchy at first. However as time goes on and they bed in they seem to be better. They are very well suited to back roads/canyon carving.
Tried EBC Green Stuff but they did not work for me; now I'm using Ferodo DS Performance. They work well on OEM and EBC Turbo Grove discs.
I saw the same thing on our car. We are right under 4K miles and it seemed very ODD to me. Also def a lot of break dust. I have to wash the car/wheels at least once a week because they start turning dark grey.
