I had my R in for annual service today and the back brake pad thickness was reported as 4mm. The service advisor recommended I keep an eye on them for possible future replacement. The car only has 32k miles and i was surprised the back pads were wearing. The fronts were 8mm.
Then, I was told that VW's priortize the back brakes in everyday use. That's contrary to everything I thought I knew about car braking.
The service advisor said that's why VW's 'squat' under braking unlike other cars that 'nose dive'.
Can this be right?
Thanks, Bob.
