Hello i just come to say i done it and im happy. I bought new disc and   new brake bads too which is brembo (metal hybrid etc )

This kit works well if i shud say somthing about this kit......Less is moore now i dont have to push that much brake pedal what i have to do before i upgrade this. Yes i change front and back....And yes i havent get any moore  brake noise at all.

 

Another reason why i done it....Because this kit was nice price...all stuff was only 159 euros 😄.

 

 

 

I fitted these discs to a 2000 VW Passat 4Motion 3 times, I did that because that car had the front callipers mounted behind the from axle centre point so especially in winter, the salty cold wet road spray caused the front brakes to "wash out" and the biting point happened maybe 50 > 100 metres after I applied the brakes, horrible feeling.

 

Fitting ATE Power Discs with their elliptical grooves helped throw the water of the disc and the pads as soon as the brakes were applied, I also added shrouds from later cars to reduce the quantity of water hitting them. That car was heavy and only had 288mm front discs, which curiously is the size of front discs my wife's 2015 VW Polo has, so it needed as much help as possible to slow down even in dry warm weather!

 

With the typical usage I have for my own newer car, I'll just leave it with standard discs, as I found only using a car in winter once every 2 or 3 weeks meant that salty water sitting on these grooved discs really messed them up, which was why I had to replace them once more I should have!
