Brake pads Ferodo or OEM Audi
Ferado Fast Road pads. DS2000s maybe? Excellent cold bite and never had them fade while left-foot- braking during autox. Had some Hawks or something and they destroyed the rotors just daily driving them. Compound was way too aggressive on those.
Pros: excellent cold bite
Cons: destroyed the rotors
I managed to get my hand on a set of MK1 Audi TT front and rear brakes for a steal, also round the corner to my work which was even better. This takes my front brakes from 288mm up to 312mm and takes my rear brakes from 232mm solid discs to 256mm vented discs.
Pros: bigger front brakes
Vehicle:
Audi TT
I like the Ferodos and I would buy them again. They had good feel and bite, and they are quiet.
Pros: good feel and bite
Vehicle:
Volkswagen Golf
The Ferodo's are great. I will need to replace my pads after my next event in January. I am going to try Carbotech pads this next time, XP10 in front and XP8 in the rear after discussing my needs with them.
Pros: Ferodo's are great
Vehicle:
Audi
Currently on my EP3 I'm running the spoon monoblocks behind enkei rpf1's as you can see here. With Brembo discs using Ferodo Ds 2500 brake pads. Also running Hell braided lines with motol 600 brake fluid.

I had my S3 in last Friday and the dealership managed to fix my tick/click. I took a video of the noise before taking it in for service but it didn't turn out as well as nikhsub1's; however, the noise was almost identical to nikhsub1's but mine only happened when turning to the right. I would hazard a guess that it may be the same issue some are experiencing with the R. I didn't get the chance to talk to the technician directly but the service writer described the issue as a loose pin or tab on the brakes that was making contact with the rotor.
Pros: easy fix
Cons: loose pin or tab
Vehicle:
Audi S3
I saw a review of the GTI with the PP and the reviewer said the brakes on the PP are the same brakes used on the Audi S3.
Pros: same as Audi S3
Vehicle:
Volkswagen
I will be running Ferodo DS2500 brake pads in front and OEM pads on the rear.
Tried EBC Green Stuff but they did not work for me; now I'm using Ferodo DS Performance. They work well on OEM and EBC Turbo Grove discs.
Pros: works well
Cons: squealing
I run the Sebro slotted rotors with Ferodo DS3.12s on track, which are louder than a school bus on the street, so I swap back to OEM pads and rotors after each event.
Cons: very loud on street
