I have a idea, based upon a system some high end power tools have such as "Festool" from Germany, which uses an extractor to take the dust, wet or dry, away whilst the tool is being used. It has a 99.9% efficency rate. Attached to the brake calliper area, the extractor starts up when the brakes are applied, drawing the brake dust away from the alloy wheels to a serviceable container. Just an idea.

very same problem as our Q7 does. I went with some EBC dustless pads and now I can go a week and still barely see brake dust. I will be doing this myself when my front pads go. I personally would not be feel comfortable attaching anything like this. It seem to be much more of a process than just changing out pads. Just an idea.

I installed the EBC Green in my old Mercedes ML and reduced the brake dust but also noticed less pedal feel and height. What is your opinion of the EBC in the Allroad?

Searching the EU shows only green stuff recommended for Q7.
