Brake pads Textar or DBA

rear disc axle with prop valve, new textar pads

I used OEM replacement Textar pads. At some later date I may go with something a bit more grippy, but for DD duties the Textar/Porsche pads seem to be more than up to the task.

I recommend Textar, great bite and no need of pre-heating. They also don't cause too much wear on the discs and on the other hand don't generate much brake dust.

Textar is an OEM supplier, and they're not that expensive - run with those. Same amount of dust as stock, but no noise, and stock like braking characteristics.

Textar is the OEM brand..which of course you can get from 1stVWparts.

Dba xp pads with dba t3 rotors, but wouldn't use them again they dust like hell
