    economy - think you can enable via Vag if not already an option

    As for pads the ones you guys mention above how do you find them for
    - squeal / noise when stopping ?
    - over all stopping / pad feel?

    Now : 2018 Mercedes E63S
    Previous: 2017 Audi RS6 Performance Avant....Too many other Audis

    i have installed Akebono in my current and all my previous cars before.

    Brake performance is about the same or better and dust is 90% reduced.
