Neither have pad wear sensors so OK if you are not bothered about that. EBC Yellowstuff were circa £230 inc. VAT / delivery for fronts and rears together; less dust, better initial bite and retardation, less prone to fade.

Weird, I rang euro car parts who AFAIK are the importer of Pagid
They list the brake discs but not the pads!
Bargain that is Philip.

Folks,

Give Remsa a try, I'm running them on the RS4 now and quite frankly they feel identical to the stock ones that came with the car.

Not too sure about part number as they don't seem to list it on the net. If you can find the local dealer, ask them to check for the current gen RS6 pads, that's how the guy found mine.

Direct fitment with sensors. Best thing about it? It cost me SGD 100 for all 8 pads! Equal of around GBP 50!
