So a little update on Millie Very Happy

The Saturday just gone and she went in for one of her 6,000 mile services, all oils changed as well and all went ok with that Thumbs Up

The last service i think she had new brake pads on the back, i was trying a set from terrafirma, one of there own ones, all was ok to start with, but as time went on, they started to squeak more and more, so i stuck it out until this service Rolling Eyes
In the mean time i was doing some homework trying to find out what make of pads i could replace them with, i found some in the end by accident as they are not clear to find on their website Rolling Eyes

I'm using these ...

I decided to put new front ones as well, these are from EBC and they are greenstuff 4x4 suv etc . . .

As they have been on for 5 days now, i am very impressed with these, even getting them bedded in, which there was no loss off braking when needed and will update when i have put more miles on Millie Very Happy 1996 Golf Blue 300Tdi 110 Pick up.
