An Email from EBC back when I had my B9 RS4:
"I emailed the contact in EBC I had previously been conversing with, who today responded, in part:-
"...confirm we now have the front & rear pads for the S4 & RS4 in stock (they are the same pads). We only list the Yellowstuff for these cars but there is a Redstuff version available (these are listed for the A8), I have listed the part numbers below…
Front pads:
DP42277R (Yellowstuff)
DP32277C (Redstuff)
Rear pads:
DP42254R (Yellowstuff)
DP32254C (Redstuff)..."
The DP32277C (Redstuff) pad was the part # I was given by another person from EBC when I initially enquired about S4 pads in 2017.
So, upon further query, he just confirmed the same pads suit S4, S5, (not SQ5), Q7 & A8 (2017 onward ‘D5’ 3.0 hybrid models)."
My F3 RSQ3 with aluminium 6 pot calipers actually uses the same front pad as the RS4 and I've just passed the 15,000 mile mark with the pads in and no squeaks (F3 RSQ3 with the OEM pads also suffer from the dreaded squeal too - not exactly a surprise!).
