This seems pretty good actually reading the bit on the ACEA site:

Going on 35 year old information (before the internet), I've always understood the BMW (German car) brake dust situation was a TUV mandated pad formula that enhanced brake dust. As a safety related issue.

I don't think it is any longer at least. They seem to prefer high bite and high friction for sure, but I had a couple 2 series UKL loaners and they clearly have some kind of ceramic or low dust pad vs the bigger cars, but the bite still felt fine. BMW brakes are so overboosted I would assume they can get away with a less bitey pad.

Cayenne? Shit how about the entire audi lineup. No idea what OEM pads they use but they're dusty as can be.

I wouldn't be surprised if those standards don't go the way that y'all think. Ceramic pads still dust, they just dust a clear/white dust that's smaller.
All those old German cars that had really bad brake dust used organic compound pads. It wouldn't surprise me if they decided that one type of pad dust is less allowable than the others. |
