Re: On ceramic now
Just generally sharper, when the other half drives she near puts me throught the windscreen for the first couple miles until she gets use to them

Re: On ceramic now
Course ECU was reprogrammed in airbag adaption and ESP. Bolts were replaced by previous owner.sonny wrote:Very nice fella, just make sure you have reprogrammed the ECU so the car knows it has ceramics on and also check to see if the ceramics have had the service campaign carried out.
Service campaign 46F2 (Replace bolts securing ceramic discs to hub).

Ceramics far more sharp. Needs to be more careful)sakimano wrote:any comments on day to day braking performance on ceramic vs. standard brakes?
I understand the heavy duty performance benefits of a track day, but can anyone comment on just daily driving these?
But for car with MRC Stage2 on board - its must have option.

Re: On ceramic now
Got ceramics on mine after an upgrade by Audi following repeated brake judder - I don't drive my RS4 hard, but the brakes are superb....contrary to popular belief, they are very responsive from cold, and even better when warm. I don't track my car, it's just a good reason to go out for a drive.... Pedal travel is now better, and another benefit (apart from looking the dogs!) is no chance of rusty discs and no brake dust contaminating my alloys (fronts anyway..). If you can fit them - definitely go for it!

Re: On ceramic now
I've had mine for about nine months now. Similar story to Johnnydog which I just summarised in the Brake Judder topic (http://tinyurl.com/b8v3y85).
In the very cold and very wet I notice them not being quite as good as the iron they replaced for the first few seconds of the first brake application of a drive, but I might just be imagining it. They are slightly more binary on-off but you adjust to it. New drivers (and their passengers) get a shock!
