ceramic brakes
 
I have '08 TT. My dash rells me I need new brake pads. This is partly good news because I'm tired of exessive brake dust. I want to replace with ceramic. I haven't found any that say "with wear sensor". Do I need that? If I replace w/o sensor will the dash read that forever?

Check out EBC red stuff. I forgot the website that sells and delivers in canada. I have thouse and the set i bought for the front has sensors. They are great.

Red stuff is the same way. Some people say EBC squeel. Mine never did and the dust...is gone!!!!! Although i love my last options of having chrome or black rims :D

If you buy pads WITHOUT sensor, the "change brake" signal will stay on always. Unless you can supress it thru to OBD (i don't know if feasable).
