I am not sure how hands on you are, but swapping out the pads for a pair of Axxis Deluxe (or Deluxe Plus) pads would significantly cut down on the dusting you are seeing.

If you are bothered.

Cheers,

I will do a pad swap as I did on the E53. As of date, I still couldnt find a listing. I had good success with Hawk pads but I'll check out Axxis.

Check out Zheckhausen, give them a call and they'll recommend an ideal set up, Dave there is a great reference to talk to.

Cheers,
