123 brake pad recommendation needed
It's time to change out the front brake pads on my '82 240D. A quick look at Fastlane gives me four different makes (Pagid, PBR, ATE, Textar) to choose from. Any thoughts on which will be the best choice? Thanks.

This is one of those topics that get beaten to death here, try a search....
My choice is Pagid. I know the Pagid and Textar are OEM, not sure about the others... Replace the rotors, never have a MB disc brake rotor "turned", my local Indy will not use Balo rotors (I have a set on my car and they have served me well but tha Balo's on my '97 Volvo kept warping every 5,000 mi....) so once again another discussion debate....

The often mentioned ugly dust that accumulates on the wheels might not be as much concern in the 240D if you are using wheel covers. If OTOH you have bundt or other classy wheels, you might like the PBR deluxe pads.
