Has anyone used any of these supposed better stopping, low dust brake pads, and, if so, are they any good?

Not sure about these exact ones I had Carnatic brakes on my RS 5 and the wheels were always clean of brake dust.

Carnatic? I can't find any reference to these online.

26 January, 201412 yr

yep had them on my Caddy (had the MK5 gti brake upgrade) after a horrible time with Ferodo squealing, massive difference over OEM's and over the Ferodo's, had barely any dust and from cold braked incredibly well.

I also liked Mintex M1144 had them on the Octavia really great pad.

IIRC they're pretty harsh on the discs.

Yes you will changing the discs every year at least with those type of pads.

Passenger seat electrical controls not working after a new windscreen was fitted

Graham Butcher · 6 hours ago6 hr

This might be just a coincidence. But I have just had a new windscreen fitted following a rock being thrown up by a lorry's wheels hitting it, which left a small chip, which after a few days became a long crack and was growing. The screen was replaced last week, and yesterday I discovered the seat was not responding to the controls. I cannot see any fuse listed in the owner's manual which states it supplies power to the seats. The driver's seat is working as usual, which made me think it must b

CD autochanger fault

Slash112000 · 5 June5 Jun

Hi all, I noticed a few forums posted over a decade ago, but unfortunately didn't seem to relate. I've got an issue where the cd auto changer had a fault. I pressed the eject button which spat the magazine out. I checked over the cds and everything seemed fine. After reseating the mag, the stereo no longer recognises the magazine, and says "no magazine". Since then I've tried to eject the mag, but had no luck. Has anyone had any issues with this? I removed the autochanger in the idea of fitt

keyfob misbehaving seriously

somean49 · 40 minutes ago40 min

Octy 2 1.4TSI ESTATE CAXA Quite uncertain where to enter this question. The keyfob#1 has started to cause serious problems with the car alarm system. So far keyfob#2 is working with no problem. Car alarm starting randomly and only disconnecting the battery helped. Yesterday the alarm kept sounding/flashing even when the engine was running - undrivable. Is there a home cure whereby I can remap/reset the key fob? My very helpful auto sparks is unable to help

Replacing interior decorative strip O4

TimoB · yesterday at 15:321 day

Hi Everyone, I have been investigating how I can replace the decorative trim pieces on the console of the O4 (see attached picture (version I would like). The easy part has been figuring out the general part numbers, however I get stuck on the specifics. I know the O4 has two technical variants; one with stock leds and one with RGB leds, and that there is a multitude of different codes for all the different colours/textures. I would like to either find the haptic (square) silver ones or the pla

2.0l TSI engines: what should I be looking out for AWD vehicles approaching 100k?

Sinbad1900 · 31 May31 May

Hoping to purchase a 2.0l TSi Sportline/Laurin & Klement variant at some point soon. My budget may result in me seeking out a vehicle with 95K onwards on the clock. I’ll be only considering something with a full comprehensive service history. My understanding is that I shouldn’t worry about cam chain tensioners as they go on and on. But do they? So is there anything I should really looking out for? Thanks
