I personally run Zimmermann rotors and EBC pads. No issues during heavy braking. Definitely buy quality rotors, cheap rotors warp pretty quickly.
You should stick with the OEM filter, made by Mann or Hengst. You can buy at VW dealer or Amazon.
I have had a set of OEM (centric i think) pads for a while, they have lasted well thru many mountain runs (no track days)....I am in need to new front rotors/pads, so upgrading to a slotted front and EBC yellows, going to leave the rears alone for now and see how it drives with the fronts upgraded
Yea, I imagine it was a chore. Also forgot to mention, I run Akebono euro ceramics right now and love them because of no dust, but they definitely don't have the bite of an OEM pad, but i'll likely go with another ceramic pad to keep dust down.
I have a red top in my 4 motion b6 Passat. I have not had any electrical issues. As long as the optima matches or exceeds the oem battery cca you’ll be fine.
I have APR springs and lowered the car about 3/4”, want Bilstein B8s. The Bilstein B8s don’t affect ride height from what I’ve read, only the springs do.
114k still on factory brakes all around!
these work fantastic.
Just to update - my 2014 GLI is currently in the shop. The hissing is due to cold weather causing a seal to \"shrink\". Boost is always regained after startup, so it's not a \"safety\" issue. With that said, they've ordered the report to replace the brake boost.
I've put the Bilstien HDs on several Weekenders and think they are too soft IMO.
