    DBA std, wish I had gone for slotted though...

    Bendix HD brake pads - don’t waste your hard earned, go for ferodo or similar.

    Yep +1 for DBA T2 slotted with LR pads up front and LR discs and pads down back. Finally stopped vibrating!

    Bendix pads did the job but the Ferodo ones feel nicer. I'm getting real good at pad and front rotor changes.

    Now to sort that park brake out...

    Sometime back Delios rotors and Akebono pads were getting good feedback. Not sure how people think they are performing now.

    Still can’t get Akebono for the D4 3.0L disappointingly. I went Bendix euro and they’re shocking for dust - yet the tears are reasonable.

    Bendix std on the rear and Heavy Duty on the front. The fronts are really bad on dust, wear is OK. Will be changing the fronts out soon for Ferodo “Thermoquiet” pads.
