You will need good 9.4" vented rotors & good pads like Ferodo, Pagid or Jurid.
Pros: good pads
Bendix Titanium pads with new rotors 4/20/02
Vehicle:
Ford Contour
Jurid,like Pagid and ATE,and Lucas/Girling are all OEM suppliers to VW,the Jurid pads are a OEM replacement and make a hell of a lot of dust,but are less likely to "squeek" due to their softer compound.
Pros: less likely to squeek
Cons: make a hell of dust
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I got those JURID and will have them installed in the same time as my suspension. Someone told me on the brakes forum that JURID makes pads for Porsches, so I don't think I can go wrong with that.
Pros: makes pads for Porsches
Volkswagen uses Jurid and Pagid Black compound brakepads as OEM on our Passats. The problem is that these pads take a very long time to correctly bed into the brake rotors. If these pads aren't bed correctly, over time they will wear unevenly on the rotor which causes vibration. That vibration is what causes your brakes to squeal!!
Cons: uneven wear, causes vibration
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Passat
