Which brake pads?

Hi Guys,

I seem to have a brake pads light on intermittantly, I have had two garages take a quick look and they both seem to think the brake pads are ok for a while, now the light is on constantly when I turn the car on. So I have decided best to have the pads replaced, initially I was thinking just do rear but then realised my cars front ones I believe have the sensors while back do not.

Now I am thinking just replace both sets and where the problem starts, I have no idea which PR Codes is for mine. I have been on eurocar parts as they have a 50% off thing on pads, I put in the Reg and it sees as a 2010 Passat which technically 09 is the same as a 10 plate B6. It sees two different sets of rear pads and both have different PR codes, I have taken a look at my codes and neither seem to match. Which pr code should I use and secondly which would you recomend brand wise.

Personally I'd go for Pagid or ATE, but I avoid using Euro as had too many incorrect parts in the past, they always seem to have DFS style discounts going on. I use TPS for OEM parts so worth checking them if local to you. If you have any doubts about the discs change them as well.

Any low dust ceramic ?

Interesting, I decided to order some Bambo and Bosch (back pads) went to collect and asked them to check again and they suggested a different set for back despite them telling me the codes in the first place. I was annoyed to say the least but they gave me a set of Bambo front and back now for the same price so £51. Now to get the garrage to install them, hopefully all is well. I did try TPS but could only see trade option online, didnt try the branch as it was either Euro or them and I could only drive to one
