While I do have one of the Audi Big Brake kits (on my SilverBeast), the Big Brakes I was working on were the South African ones. Maybe SA VW figured a way to use the later T4 brakes on the T25s and that's what the Big Brake kit is. Speculation for sure. Van-Cafe also indicates that its a low brake wear indicator, not ABS. ABS would be on the caliper, not on the pads.
