deanmr2 Posted February 17 Report Share Posted February 17 I have just recently bought my 981 and after checking the MOT history I saw that it had an advisory on the last test stating that the front pads are worn thin. I bought Zimmerman discs which are a German brand and they had a made in Germany sticker on the boxes. I bought Textar pads which I think are OE or so I have read. I actually fitted the discs and pads yesterday and they certainly seem to be good quality but of course time will tell. I will add that the Zimmerman discs come fully coated including the braking surfaces which you do not remove as the coating is removed by the pads after a few braking cycles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I forgot to say that the old pads I removed from the car were Textar with the Porsch part number on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
