So i got an audi b5 and a passat b5. Both facelift models.
The audi brakes bite so much more than the passats.

Passat is a 4motion. Audi is fwd.
Can The 400 kilo difference be the difference in experience?
Audi has new ferodo premium pads front and back.

Passat i changed the rear pads to ferodo premium. Fronts i dont know brand but they are new.
Discs look good too.
Unaired the lines to the front. Just to be sure.
It brakes fine. No soggy or hard pedal like i know can happen with these cars.
Just less than the audi.

Is it the wheight?
Time to get the bigger 2.5 tdi brakes?
I can get a set from an a4 2.5 tdib5.5 quattro.
Would it be a big difference?

Thanks!
