Steve, I have no issues with the Brembo product, I trust the brand. My original post states your feedback possibly negates the last six words, thankyou. I have no wish to spent many thousands on a ceramic solution but so far nobody has come up with an alternate. I might try a set of the Brembo's on the front of my car and feedback to Joe, as requested, before changing to a ceramic solution (if one exists) and if they don't resolve my issue. Finally, and with all due respect, your perspective is wrong and you clearly don't know me.

I might be misreading the Brembo document but surly once the disks have done a few miles the coating will have warn away and we'll be back to surface rust??

Cheers, I'll given them a go.

Firstly, is this possible? Was it ever an option on the C8 S6's? If so how do I get a parts explosion/breakdown for the the current "non-ceramic" and "ceramic" brake options so I can create a shopping list? I'm not looking for performance reasons, I'm looking because the car is kept outdoors 50m for the sea. The car is protected to hell and kept clean but I can't do anything about the brake disks and it's torcher listening the the grinding of the pad and disks every time it' rubbing off the surface rust, let alone the reduction is lifespan! Friend/neighbour has a GT3 and an M3 both both ceramic disks and doesn't have an issues even though he has his parked outside as well. Cheers

I'll second this, top bit of kit.

Gary / Steve, thank you for your feedback.

Does this generation of car have a traction control type indicator that flashed when the systems have jumped in to stop the wheels loosing traction? I'm used to driving cars on track without any traction control so my driving style is probably different to someone who's grown up with it but I'm trying to explain why my car is eating rear brake pads. Fronts at 15% warn after 18K miles but the rears are 60% warn. If there isn't an indicator I'm just going to have to modify my driving style🙃.

Every time I get in the car and start it I get the Pre Sense indicator. It goes away after 5-10s, is this normal?

Interesting, I got in the car 17:45 on Sat and no call or destination history. Drove the car for 30 mins, picked up a meal and when I got back in and started the car everything back to normal. Only thing that was slightly odd was I didn't get the user prompt until after the engine had started. Has the quick access bar gone back to it's original location?

The wording that caught my eye was "turn off the car a message comes up on the top screen saying xxxx is registered", I don't see this when I switch off my car. I get the prompt for the user to login as but not when I turn it off, how do you enable this?

So far so good. Just in diagnostics mode researching a possible issue / issues. Very easy to use and fairly logical app.

Purchased an OBDElevel with a Pro Licence.

I've just scanned my car for the first time and one of the Static errors is an IPv6 Address Conflict Can anyone shed any light on what might be causing this and how to resolve it? I done the usual internet type search and this code and message doesn't appear. The car is factory spec except for having a very expensive Audi tow bar fitted that was activated by the dealer using a key and now shows up as a factory installed item on the components list. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated Regards Chares

Hi, don't know the answer to your question but, and don't quote me on the terminology, but are you on a fixed servicing plan where the car will prompt you every 9600 miles for an oil/inspection service? I believe you can have the car reprogrammed for flexible servicing so the oil changes can stretch beyond 9600 miles. One of my clients had this change applied and some of the cars go 17500 miles between oil changes! Most of there cars are 60K miles per year cars.

Is the reason it only shows up in 5th & 6th because these are the only gears you can use the full 520nm?
