Default What pads for wagon

It's the third time I have driven the new car today and it's amino it's head off under head braking. Phones the guy to ask if he had just changed the pads and he said "yes mate, only paid £20 for the pads aswell, mint eh". My reply cannot be posted on here lol

What pads do you guys use and recommend as these really need changed. It's a total shame as the discs the guy fitted are brembo's

Cheers

Hi there

Depends on what callipers you are running and depends on what you have(Classic or new age)

We are running PF Z-Rated pads and they're awesome pads,tried like EBC Bluestuff whihc has been disappointment for me and DS2500 which has been OK,just they're dusty(if you have white wheels be prepared to clean them)

What's the issue with the current ones? Poor braking performance in a straight line, or that the car veers off to the side?

Very poor braking performance and a loud groaning/moaning noise under heavy braking
