    So my 89 year old dad, loves his S8 plus, but hates his squeaky brakes. Anyone replaced the pads with aftermarket pads? If so what did you use?
    Thanks, I normally hang out on the RS3 board.

    Just apply a thin layer of grease on the back of the pads. It should stop the squeak.

    Jump over to the C7 forum, lots of threads on squeaky brakes and what pad choices to use.
