Where's DK?
He had ceramics for a while.... think he mentioned they weren't too hot in the cold/wet.

Actually, he's been unusually quiet since returning from "the trip". Everything ok buddy??
Something happen out there.... that you just can't talk about. Did it hurt?
Was it those nasty men?
If I show you a model.... do you want to just point at the bits concerned?

Phew, sorry.... I got a bit carried away there ! :shock:

I highly recommend you search the B7 RS4 forum for terms Pagid, Yellowstuff and read entries from folks much more knowledgable than myself on the subject. Think there was one in the last six months which was pretty comprehensive.

RS246.com is a truely fantastic guide to RS4 ownership. Everything you need to know is contained within these lines of HTML. I hope PhilT keeps a backup, coz I'd be lost without it for reference!!

Sorry folks for the ramblings. Thread hijack not intended.
Back to the ceramics....

I'd be suspect of a complete set of front pagid brake pads for 70 quid. I've used pagid on various applications and never seen them that price.

The ceramics feel no different to stock brakes on day to day use IMO and yes there piss until they heat up and rather average in the wet
