Brake pads R1 Concepts or OEM Volkswagen
I've done an almost complete overhaul on my bought-from-OG-owner low-k '07 B6 3.6 wagon. DSG from an R36, completely rebuilt suspension front to back on airbags, brakes, wrap, interior, sound system (the list goes on and on) for less than the purchase price of a used-by-who R36.
Have original brakes on it at 66000 miles.
Got them on. Lasted for a good amount. 20k miles. Weekend track slowing from 160mph+ don’t use ceramic pads something softer would be better
I have R1 on now all around and no issues since.
Running the R1 concept with ceramic pads now and have no issues. They bite a lot better then the stock setup I had on it before.
From what I heard they changed the pads on the 2020 because people complained the 2019 pads were noisy.
i had my brake pads and rotors replaced all round a month or two ago. mechanics quoted me $1000 but had it done by a family friend for around $700.
Got mine in November of 2021 and have had the same squealing and grinding issue. Sometimes it's a high-pitched whistle. Going to look at the ceramic brake pads that someone suggested, but its a shame that VW does not address.
Red doesn\u2019t have much dust. Same with green. I don\u2019t recommend the R1 concepts sport pads. They are very dusty. Almost worse than stock. Bite and feel is good though.
Bad pads from VW don't ever use OEM pads on Arteon!
