had a call from my dealer this morning to say my edition 30 was due for brake fluid replacement and would cost £68 asked if they would fit new pads while they did it and he said no problem now i dont drive my car as hard as some you lot  , so i was thinkling of getting red stuff pads all round , any experience or opinions please guys ??????????? :happy2:

MAT ED30:
i would not bother with red stuff as i have told they are crap, but i would get some better fluid in it if i was u
and maybe some of these as they come with the sensor from what i can see

Isn't it very important to make sure that whatever pad you intend to use, it's compatible and has been tested with your particular disc?

For example, AP Racing only recommend the Ferodo DS2500 with their discs on my car. It's well proven and tested.
