Brake pads
Hi, had to do an emergency stop the other day and not to impressed with how my 2.0 140 pulled, crap in fact even though it was only around 35-40mph, just no bite and grip, so wondered if anyone had some pad recommendations etc ?

Re: Brake pads
Brembo pads are pretty good and are not that expensive.

Re: Brake pads
Had the OEM pads in my Caddy when I got it - braking was OKish.
Swopped to Ferodo Premier - better than stock, but still some fade during hard braking.
Brembo "OEM" pads in now - massive improvement over the Ferodos, in the wet or dry, slow speeds, high speeds, etc. Zero fade and pedal feel has massively improved as well.
