    Remsa pads are good, about $90 per end, nothing special good OEM replacement less dust.
    Rotors are about $85each

    Get on the phone to Brakes Direct and ask them to recommend something, they do know what they are on about. Have your VIN handy too.

    I have the dba t2 rotors paired with remsa pads for 5-6years now, no noise and less dust compared to oem. I can't stand brake dust and this option fit my budget back then.

    Although not a GTI, I have just replaced the front discs & pads on my T4 for $251. The worn pads had VW & Textar stamped on the back, so not just equivalents but OEM. Imparts sell them but you will need to know someone with an account.
    Understand how it works, troubleshoot logically BEFORE replacing parts.

    Tooleys deal with Textar as well, and ship Aus-wide. They're the only one of the three that are happy to deal with the public. The other two prefer to deal with trade sales only.

    Looks like I’ll give the dba rotors and Remsa pads a go. 450 delivered for front and back seems pretty good?how many hours labour should be charged to change them all?
    Thanks for the links Etc that people posted

    Any help would be much appreciated.
    Brakes Direct in QLD. Get DBA Rotors and Wagner pads. Better quality and a lot less dust.
